Problems compiling ros-mavlink-pkg [closed]

edit

Hey ROS Gurus,

I'm having some issues while trying to compile the ros-mavlink-pkg. I got the package from https://github.com/mavlink/mavlink-ros and followed the README to try and get it installed correctly. It seems to be a problem with the mavlink header file but I have tried putting it everywhere I know possible. Maybe the build script doesn't know that the file is there without telling it so? Can anyone help me please?

Here is the error I am getting:
