I am trying to install Laser scan tools from git clone https://github.com/ccny-ros-pkg/scan_... , on Hydro. Every time I try to run Catkin_make, I get an error:

[ 41%] Performing configure step for 'csm_src'
-- Create a file named 'local_config/local-brent-Dell-DM051.cmake' if you want to add options.
gsl home: 
DBG GSL_CONFIG GSL_CONFIG-NOTFOUND
FATAL_ERROR,FindGSL.cmake: gsl-config not found. Please set it manually. GSL_CONFIG=GSL_CONFIG-NOTFOUND
CMake Error at sm/CMakeLists.txt:30 (MESSAGE):

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

I am not sure what I am doing wrong.

Thanks for your help.

This is the typical error that you get from CMake when it can't find a package.

In this particular case, the package it can't find is GSL.

You can try installing GSL with sudo apt-get install libgsl0-dev.

More generally, you can install all of the dependencies for your workspace with rosdep:

rosdep install --from-paths src -i
