Hi,

I am using ROS kinetic on Ubuntu 16. I have slam_gmapping and openslam_gmapping binaries installed using the sudo apt-get command. I am having this error when launching the gmapping node about symbol lookup and undefined symbol:

process[gmapping-2]: started with pid [23549]
/opt/ros/kinetic/lib/gmapping/slam_gmapping: symbol lookup error: /opt/ros/kinetic/lib/gmapping/slam_gmapping: undefined symbol: _ZN8GMapping14sampleGaussianEdj
[gmapping-2] process has died [pid 23549, exit code 127, cmd /opt/ros/kinetic/lib/gmapping/slam_gmapping __name:=gmapping __log:=/home/arav/.ros/log/f518ac08-ff53-11e8-a0af-a0d3c148ec01/gmapping-2.log].
log file: /home/arav/.ros/log/f518ac08-ff53-11e8-a0af-a0d3c148ec01/gmapping-2*.log

I do not know how to solve this problem. If someone has had this issue before I would appreciate some help. Thanks
