Good morning, I'm having a problem when configuring cmake to use the ros Kinetic, I'm following this tutorial http://wiki.ros.org/catkin/Tutorials/..., but when running $ catkin_make, I have the problem below:

Make sure that you have installed "catkin_pkg", it is up to date and on the PYTHONPATH.

Invoking "cmake" failed

I'm not sure about the problem, but I believe it has something to do with the python version since Ros uses one version and CMake another. I've tried everything, I can't find anything else on the web to help me, help me please!

Desculpem está mal formatado, minha primeira vez postando uma pergunta

that's not really a problem, we can fix that for you.

What is a problem is that you posted in a language other than English.

This is an English-only forum, so please post your questions in English.

I'll close this for now, but I will re-open after you've translated everything into English.

You don't need to post a new question: just click the edit button/link.

I've already edited it, I'm so desperate that I didn't pay attention, sorry.

No problem. I've re-opened it.

You write:

I'm having a problem when configuring cmake to use the ros Kinetic and install ABB

could you link to what exactly you are trying to install? We don't know what "install ABB" means.

I am trying to configure CMake, this information about "installing ABB" was just information that I thought would be useful, but I will remove them because they are not relevant to the problem.

This would appear to be the classic problem where you're attempting to use a Python interpreter which doesn't have the ROS Python packages installed.

Note this part of the Catkin/CMake output:

-- Found PythonInterp: /usr/bin/python3 (found suitable version "3.5.2", minimum required is "2") 
-- Using PYTHON_EXECUTABLE: /usr/bin/python3
...
-- Found PythonInterp: /usr/bin/python3 (found version "3.5.2")

ROS Kinetic officially only supports Python 2.x, which means that the official ROS Kinetic Python packages will only be installed for the system default Python interpreter on your OS.

Assuming you are running Ubuntu Xenial, this would be Python 2.7.12.

Assuming you have installed ROS Kinetic using apt, the ROS Python packages would have been installed for that version of Python.

I'm not sure why CMake decides to use Python 3.x on your system, but that is the problem, as this Python interpreter will not be able to find the catkin_pkg package, leading to the error you show.

There is a Python 3 version of catkin_pkg, but if you have no absolute necessity to use Python 3.x with your Kinetic installation, I would probably recommend overriding the version of Python for CMake and set it to 2.x instead.

It worked, it took me a while to uninstall, but it resolved, I was using 2 different tutorials, one using the version of python2 that ros uses and the other python3. I followed the own ros and it worked, thanks! :D
