Revision history [back]

Okay, I got a little further with the issue- enough so that I can call this an answer to my original question.

The answer is actually pretty silly; I did not install libdc1394v2 correctly (I guess?). I just tried building it again and libdc1394v2 seemed to build properly. Then, when I tried to build the bumblebee2 package, I noticed that the failure was associated with a file called "camera_info.h" This is part of the camera_info_manager package, which was not anywhere on my computer. Something is up with the dependencies (rosdep.yaml right?) of THAT package (or I just don't know what I'm doing I suppose) because rosdep did not work when I attempted to install the camera_info_manager dependencies. So when attempting to build camera_info_manager using rosmake I received an error about a file in the "sensor_msgs" package... which I found out was not installed either. After properly installing sensor_msgs and camera_info_manager, then making a copy of camera_info.h and placing it in the include folder in the bumblebee2 package (this seemed to be the only way it could find it; I tried leaving it in camera_info_manager/include to no avail) and editing bumblebee.cpp so that it could find camera_info.h in its include folder, I received what seems to be a much more benign message regarding ROS's inability to find a camera. Considering this is a very different problem than my initial one, I will post it as a new question and call this one answered.

Condensed answer: Make sure sensor_msgs and camera_info_manager is installed, and make sure camera_info.h is findable when building the bumblebee2 package (you can edit where bumblebee.cpp is trying to find this file by editing bumblebee.cpp, line 55)
