Revision history [back]

The catkin build command is part of the catkin_tools package. On apt-get the package is called python-catkin-tools.

The documentation for the package can be found here: http://catkin-tools.readthedocs.org/en/latest/index.html

Since the package was officially released, I have completely stopped using catkin_make. It is a great package!
