is robot-localization in AMCL necessary for laser_scan_matcher + imu?

edit

Hi,

I am using a YDLidar X2L + MPU9250 for localization in AMCL.
I'd like to clarify whether an ekf using robot-localization between the PoseWithCovarianceStamped output of laser_scan_matcher and Imu output of imu_filter_madgwick is necessary if i use laser_scan_matcher with param use_imu = true?

Here is the launch file:

<launch>
  <!-- Arguments -->
  <arg name="model" default="$(find mobile_base_arm)/urdf/mobile_base_arm.urdf"/>
  <param
    name="robot_description"
    textfile="$(find mobile_base_arm)/urdf/mobile_base_arm.urdf" />
  <arg name="map_file" default="$(find navigation)/maps/test_map.yaml"/>
  <arg name="open_rviz" default="true"/>
  <arg name="move_forward_only" default="false"/>

Using this launch file, my odom frame is rotated from the map by -90 degrees z axis, so when i move my robot forward (x axis), it will move forward in odom's x axis, i.e. it is sliding sideways in the map axis.
When I remove robot-localization and use the odom from laser_scan_matcher, everything works as expected.

OR am i supposed to use laser_scan_matcher to publish odom (publish_tf=true), then use fuse IMU with the odom just from laser_scan_matcher?
