Trying to setup ROS microphone capture with audio_common package. Catkin wont make.

This is the repo i am using https://github.com/ros-drivers/audio_common I get this error after setting up the repo in the catkin src folder.

-- Checking for module 'gstreamer-1.0' -- No package 'gstreamer-1.0' found CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.16/Modules/FindPkgConfig.cmake:463 (message): A required package was not found Call Stack (most recent call first): /usr/share/cmake-3.16/Modules/FindPkgConfig.cmake:643 (pkgcheckmodulesinternal) audiocommon/audiocapture/CMakeLists.txt:8 (pkgcheckmodules)

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred! See also "/home/ubuntu/catkinws/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log". See also "/home/ubuntu/catkinws/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log". Invoking "cmake" failed

I tried installing gstreamer-1.0 just to be told this it is already installed. When I try to purge gstreamer I get told it does not exist. I am stuck with this one any help would be greatly appreciated.

Error after installing libgstreamer1.0-dev and catkin making again.

You need to install the gstreamer development package using apt-get. On Ubuntu, the apt package is usually named libgstreamer1.0-dev

Yes, it'd be easier to figure out if the naming was consistent.

so the install worked and catkin make managed to make it to 97% then this error occurred. See above for revised post

That's a different apt package. You should be able to google for it.

You can often get good results by putting the error message into google. Alternatively, have you tried googling: ubuntu package gstappsink.h ?
