Hey,

I followed the instructions and everything went fine until the cmake stuff. Fedora Installation Guide

cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/ros/fuerte -DSETUPTOOLS_DEB_LAYOUT=OFF -- +++ catkin -- Could NOT find PY_em (missing: PY_EM) CMake Error at catkin/cmake/empy.cmake:29 (message): Unable to find either executable 'empy' or Python module 'em'... try
installing package 'python-empy' Call Stack (most recent call first):
catkin/cmake/all.cmake:51 (include)
catkin/CMakeLists.txt:12 (include)

any ideas?

It looks like you are missing the EmPy Python package. On Ubuntu that is installed as a Debian package dependency.

Maybe there is a corresponding Fedora 14 package. If so, I would use it.

Otherwise, try installing it with pip:

sudo pip install -U EmPy

hi,

I'm using fedora 17 -- I'm also at the point where it is asking for the log4cxx library as well and I was able to run: yum install log4cxx but I still get the same error.

would that be the same file or libraries of files? I'm not a programmer, just a tech and I'm doing this for a programmer so my knowledge is limited so any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks

Hi Flowers, I am at the same point that you are in this post. libcxx is installed but I'm getting the "Couldn't find log4cxx library" message. Did you find a solution to this problem?

Not really sure, but I think it was something about renaming a libfile because it had the version in it's name like log4cxx-v-105

Finally made it via: apt-get install python-empy

However, there is a new problem: Couldn't find log4cxx library

I already checked for the log4cxx package, which is installed, still cmake won't find it...do I have to change some system variable(most likely something like LIB_PATH?)?

thx

Rather than asking new questions in the form of an "answer", please open a new question for this problem. That way others will be able to find the solution, too.
