Install from source missing pcl related ros packages

Hello,

I'm using ros compiled from source since I'm building an app with Qt5, Vtk6, OpenCV3, and PCL 1.8.

Last time I did this, I compiled all my libraries and installed them to /usr/local.
I compiled ROS from source according to this guide: http://wiki.ros.org/indigo/Installati...

Everything seemed to work fine, I used source ~/ros_build/install_isolated/setup.bash and it found all my packages for me and worked fine. I've since then reformatted my computer due to intel / nvidia driver conflict breaking anything to do with my GPU. I followed the same install procedure more or less but now when I try to build my project, I get the following:

CMake Error at /home/dan/ros_build/install_isolated/share/catkin/cmake/catkinConfig.cmake:75 (find_package): Could not find a package configuration file provided by "pcl_conversions" with any of the following names:

pcl_conversionsConfig.cmake
pcl_conversions-config.cmake

Add the installation prefix of "pcl_conversions" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set "pcl_conversions_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If "pcl_conversions" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been installed. Call Stack (most recent call first): camera_trigger/CMakeLists.txt:7 (find_package)

Furthermore, it would seem nothing PCL related was installed with ROS. I've tried installing individual packages via roslocate and rosinstall according to here: http://answers.ros.org/question/10581... but the error is the same, probably due to no pcl_conversionsConfig.cmake being generated with the rosinstall.

I'm pretty stumped as to what I'm doing wrong, I thought installing the packages from source would work with rosinstall, but I can't find any *.cmake files that were generated. After source'ing the new setup.bash generated by rosinstall, I can rosmake the pcl_conversions package but it happily builds without a complaint. Yet still the above error occurs with my program.

My apologies about the duplicate post, it would seem in creating my account it posted the question I was editing without ever displaying a post confirmation page. So I thought the post was lost to the void.
