You shouldn't manually hardcode your paths or copy files around, that's a recipe for desaster. I doubt that you'll get it running easily on Indigo. The wiki pages haven't been updated since 2011, and they mention "Electric" as the last supported ROS distro. A lot of stuff has changed since then.

You shouldn't manually hardcode your paths or copy files around, that's a recipe for desaster. Usually when you notice that some ros package like mapping_msgs is missing, you should first try installing it via apt-get (sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-mapping-msgs), or alternatively clone it into your catkin (or rosbuild) workspace. Then, catkin_make (or rosmake) should pick it up.
In this case however, I doubt that you'll get it running easily on Indigo. The wiki pages haven't been updated since 2011, and they mention "Electric" as the last supported ROS distro. A lot of stuff has changed since then.then. So if you really must use it, try setting up a Ubuntu 10.04 machine with ROS Electric; but I wouldn't recommend that; I'm not sure even whether the deb packages for Electric are still available.
