How do I launch gmapping?
Hi,
after battling to get ROS working, i chose to work with gmapping so i downloaded the gmapping package and the openslam_gmapping_master packages (after reading a lot of posts, it seems like to be needed).
Now i can't launch the gmapping as i get thisspace@space-HP-ProBook:~$ rosrun gmapping slam_gmapping scan:=base_scan
[rospack] Error: package 'gmapping' not found
i tried to rebuild my catkin file as a results of feedback on forum but then i get this error
