Revision history [back]

GMapping does not publish geometry_msgs/PoseWithCovarianceStamped message as robot_pose_ekf and other packages do. Instead it provide transformation from map frame to odom frame. In combination with transformation from odom frame to robot base frame (provided by your odometry) you have estimation of your robot pose.

About the rotation problem you have other informations are needed (about hardware, configuration etc).

Bye Ale
