catkin_make fails on windows with velodyne drivers

edit

Hey guys, I'm pretty new to ROS and I'm supposed to integrate an IMU and VLP-16 into one node. But the first problem I've experienced is the installation of the ROS velodyne drivers.

Here are the steps I've taken: First, I go into my workspace folder, catkin_ws, using the shortcut made by using the following installation instructions: http://wiki.ros.org/Installation/Windows

Inside the folder, I create a src folder then run the following commands:

rosinstall_generator velodyne --deps --exclude RPP --tar --flat > pkg.rosinstall

which successfully creates a pkg.rosinstall file. Then, I enter the ff:

vcs import --force src < pkg.rosinstall

which unpacks a couple of tarballs into the src folder. Then I do the following:

rosdep update
rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src -r -y

Rosdep update works fine, but the second command is where things start getting funky. It says that

c:\catkin_ws>rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src -r -y
ERROR: the following packages/stacks could not have their rosdep keys resolved
to system dependencies:
velodyne_driver: No definition of [libpcap] for OS [windows]
Continuing to install resolvable dependencies...

I just manually install npcap in my Windows, then add its path variable.

But when I do catkin_make, I get the following error:

I'm totally lost as to what I can do to make this work, and any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
