The ros-indigo-adhoc-communication Ubuntu package seems to be incomplete. For example, it doesn't seem to install the adhoc-communication node.

Using adhoc_communication after installing this results in this error:

ERROR: cannot launch node of type [adhoc_communication/adhoc_communication]: can't locate node [adhoc_communication] in package [adhoc_communication]

Note that it also does not include a launch directory - I had to copy it over from the git repo.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

The following files are installed with this package:

dpkg-query -L ros-indigo-adhoc-communication

The ros-indigo-adhoc-communication Ubuntu package seems to be incomplete.

Looking at the install section of the CMakeLists.txt of adhoc_communication (here), I'd say you're right. All the relevant install(..) statements are either commented, or just part of the boilerplate comments.

I guess the package is/was mostly used built from-sources (and by sourcing the devel/ space).

Any ideas on how to fix this?

You can't directly fix this. You could consider fixing the CMakeLists.txt and submitting a pull-request against aau-ros/aau_multi_robot. The package maintainer(s) will then have to do a re-release.

I'll work on the cmake issue. In the mean time, I did a catkin build from aau-ros/aau_multi_robot and was unsuccessful for a different reason.
