Using all pcl functionality in ROS

Hi

First my configuration: I am using a 64bit, Ubuntu 14.04 distribution with the standard ros-indigo installation on it.

I use the Point Cloud Library (pcl) to acquire and process data which so far worked out great. I wanted to use a feature of the pcl called SHOTColorEstimation as a feature descriptor. I used FastPointFeatureHistogram already before without any problems but when I include the SHOTColorEstimation in my code i get a lot of the following errors:

undefined reference to `pcl::SHOTColorEstimation::computeFeature(pcl::PointCloudpcl::SHOT1344&)

Now I know I linked correctly to pclros, as all my other code is running just fine. How can I include code from the pcl library that doesn't seem to be part of pclros? SHOTColorEstimation should be part of the official PCL 1.7.0 release which to my understanding is used in ros-indigo?

Thanks for your help
