Revision history [back]

You don't have the uvc_camera package installed. Try installing it by using sudo apt-get install ros-hydro-uvc-camera
You've checked out the uvc_camera package from source, but haven't compiled it. Either compile it, or remove it from your workspace and install it through apt (see #1)
