Hello

I would like to ask about some tutorials and helps installing some internal and external packages. I Installed them through some installation script. First I installed ROS Fuerte set the workspace. Than tried to install the two internal packages : amcl_listener and pow_analyzer . I the error on the pow_analyzer package.

The error was

make: * No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

With the amcl_listener make file was build and its not empty. But its not the case with the other internal package. So I think its about the dependence, so any help about that. Than also could not install the external package.

Thanks

Well thats also no magic. Just let ros install the package and let it fetch the dependency's by itself. The related tutorial is here.

i. cd ~/ros_workspace (I put all checked out packages in here)

ii. roslocate info package_name > package_name.rosinstall

iii. rosinstall . /etc/ros/diamondback|electric|fuerte package_name.rosinstall

iv. rosmake package_name (rosdep --install package_name to install system dependencies)

v. deal with ROS dependencies by iterating 1 or 2

Please don't add answer after answer but either add a comment to an existing answer or edit your original question. Who created the packages you are trying to compile? To get a Makefile, do roscd roscreate and use the contents of the file Makefile.tmpl.
