Hi,

I have already gone through the Robotsetup steps following the ROS wiki http://wiki.ros.org/navigation/Tutorials/RobotSetup.

Currently I am stuck in the step 3.1 Creating a Package, as I used roscreate-pkg my_robot_name_2dnav segbot (which I pulled from the github https://github.com/utexas-bwi/segbot). However, it displays: ERROR: dependency [segbot] cannot be found

Could anybody provide some suggestions on this problem? Greatly appreciate your time and help!

Here are a few things that might help solve the problem:

If you are starting afresh, I would recommend using catkin. Use catkin_create_pkg instead of roscreate-pkg
If you are using Groovy, use the segbot code from source that you will have to download in your catkin workspace.
The segbot code has been released as system debs in ROS Hydro. If you are using hydro, install the meta-package as explained below:

Command:

sudo apt-get install ros-hydro-segbot

@piyushk

Thank you for your suggestion! I am using groovy right now. It seems that $ catkin_create_pkg my_robot_name_2dnav segbot works !!!

It displayed the following in the terminal: Created file my_robot_name_2dnav/CMakeLists.txt Created file my_robot_name_2dnav/package.xml Successfully created files in /home/lili/catkin_ws/src/my_robot_name_2dnav. Please adjust the values in package.xml.
