I'm trying to follow this tutorial: http://wiki.ros.org/pcl/Tutorials

However, I'm not sure what the CMake file needs to look like. I'm getting the following error when compiling:

Could not find a configuration file for package pcl.

Set pcl_DIR to the directory containing a CMake configuration file for pcl. The file will have one of the following names:

pclConfig.cmake
pcl-config.cmake
edit retag flag offensive close merge delete

It looks like this tutorial is outdated. In hydro, pcl is no more available as a package dependency, but now as a system dependency, meaning the default CMake mechanism described here at the end of the section has to be used.

The moveit_ros_perception package can serve as an example (pretty sure you could find others, but that one was the first that crossed my mind).
