Building cob_people_perception with catkin_make

Hi y'all,

I am trying to do face detection and position measurement with the Kinect for Windows v2 sensor. I have successfully calibrated the kinect camera and I need to port cob_people_perception over to my kinect v2 but while running catkin_make, I stumbled upon the following error:

-- +++ processing catkin package: 'cob_people_tracking_filter'
-- ==> add_subdirectory(cob_people_perception/cob_people_tracking_filter)
-- Using these message generators: gencpp;genlisp;genpy
CMake Error at /opt/ros/indigo/share/catkin/cmake/catkinConfig.cmake:75 (find_package):
  Could not find a package configuration file provided by
  "cob_perception_msgs" with any of the following names:

    cob_perception_msgsConfig.cmake
    cob_perception_msgs-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "cob_perception_msgs" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
  or set "cob_perception_msgs_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above
  files.  If "cob_perception_msgs" provides a separate development package or
  SDK, be sure it has been installed.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  cob_people_perception/cob_people_tracking_filter/CMakeLists.txt:20 (find_package)

I'm wondering what I am missing?

Curiosa & curiosa.

I cloned cob_perception_common as in git clone https://github.com/ipa-rmb/cob_perception_common.git, cloned cob_common, cd'ed into the respective folders and did catkin_ws$ rosdep install -r --from-paths . for each folder cloned before doing catkin_make -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Release"and everything was honky-dory.

I wish there was a detailed README.md file that explicitly explained the installation process. Hope this helps someone someday.

Thanks!

Instead of duplicating these instruction in the README of every package the documentation is in the ROS wiki: http://wiki.ros.org/jade/Installation...

Also: @lakehanne: this really points to a missing dependency declaration in the package.xml of cob_people_perception or one of its dependencies. Have you reported the issue?

Yes, I have. Thank you! Just a question I have. I am using the code with Kinect for Windows v2 sensor. I tried roslaunch openni2_launch openni2.launch but I kept running into

process[camera_base_link3-13]: started with pid [12958]

I'm wondering what I am missiong?

Have you made sure to install all dependencies before trying to build cob_people_perception?

The documentation on the webpage mentioned no dependency. Can you list them out for me? Thank you!

You can easily do it yourself: rosdep install --from-paths /path/to/your/catkin_ws/src --ignore-src (after having sourced the correct setup.bash).

Also: which webpage? If I look at wiki/cob_people_perception, under Dependencies (to the right of the Package Summary), it lists a number of packages.

Thank you! I did rosdep install --from-paths . from $catkin_ws/src and ot seemed to skip past the earlier error spot. However, I have a new one here:

Could not find messages which '/home/catkin_ws/devel/share/cob_people_detection/msg/getDetectionsAction.msg' depends on.

That sounds like an issue with the CMakeLists.txt of cob_people_detection. You might want to log an issue on their issue tracker.
