Couldn't find executable named manager below /phidgets

I followed http://wiki.ros.org/phidgets to get phidgets installed but when I run rosrun phidgets manager, it says [rosrun] Couldn't find executable named manager below /home/bot/catkin/src/phidgets

Any thoughts?

BTW, what is the difference between phidgets and phidgetsdrivers these two packages? http://wiki.ros.org/phidgets http://wiki.ros.org/phidgetsdrivers

The "phidgets" package seems to be extremely outdated. The instructions on the linked wiki page still refer to rosmake and not catkin, so that's why it doesn't run. The "phidgets_drivers" package is still maintained (by me).
