Kobuki is not publishing tf transform between odom and base_footprint

I'm currently using a turtlebot2 and I have a kobukinode which I launch by including the minimal launch file. In that launch file, the parameter kobukipublishtf is set to true, so I'm expecting a tf transform from odom to basefootprint. When I run the tf tree debugger tool though, I see two trees, one with basefootprint, and the other with odom. How do I debug this? The only error I get on launch is that the link between the map frame and the basefootprint frame does not exist.
