Did you make sure to source the workspace using source /home/nicknair/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash in the terminal or by adding that line to your bashrc?

There are 5 packages discovered. Your catkin_make output is truncated. We cannot determine whether or not it works like this.

you need to check first 'echo $ROS_PACKAGE_PATH' if it's fine as suggested in tutotial then create new catkin workspace then source your echo "source /opt/ros//setup.bash" >> ~/.bashrc source ~/.bashrc 'catkin_init_workspace' and then use catkin_make. Otherwise you need to source your workspace.
