Excuse me, I am using Ubuntu 14.04 and ROS indigo. I downloaded the mavros package from https://github.com/mavlink/mavros.git , to the folder catkin_ws. But when I run catkin_make, it came errors:

CMake Error at /opt/ros/indigo/share/catkin/cmake/catkinConfig.cmake:75 (find_package):
  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "control_toolbox"
  with any of the following names:

    control_toolboxConfig.cmake
    control_toolbox-config.cmake

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


-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
See also "/home/sen/catkin_ws/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".
See also "/home/sen/catkin_ws/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log".
Invoking "cmake" failed

why this happened? How can I solve this problem? Thanks a lot if you could help.

Hi!

There are two different possibilities than can cause this error.

  1. You have not installed the control_toolbox package. To do this the following command should be enough.

    sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-control-toolbox

  2. If this is not the case and you already have installed it. Then there is a problem with the sourcing of that package. You have to make sure that the route where that package is installed is in the $ROS_PACKAGE_PATH. Just do a echo $ROS_PACKAGE_PATH to see the paths in your ROS_PACKAGE_PATH.

I hope this helps!
