I'm following the google cartographer instructions for installing ros integration and ran into an error during the compilation step. When running

catkinmakeisolated --install --use-ninja

cmake failed to compile cartographer after successfully compiling Ceres, as it seemed to have trouble finding a sparse linear algebra library. A gist of the error resides here.

The important part is here:

==> Processing plain cmake package: 'cartographer'

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:30 (find_package):
  Found package configuration file:

    /home/aleks/Documents/catkin_ws/install_isolated/lib/cmake/Ceres/CeresConfig.cmake

  but it set Ceres_FOUND to FALSE so package "Ceres" is considered to be NOT
  FOUND.

What's odd is that it found Eigen, and even compiled Ceres, but still had the error.

I'm thinking this might be some catkin related dependency issue, anyone have any ideas?
