How to make ReIn with Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick)?

edit

Hi Raph, I just managed to install ReIn on Maveric. I had to install libsoci manually:

sudo apt-get install libsoci-core-gcc-dev

It seems that the dependency is not resolved automatically.

FWIW even though the current REIN package is deprecated and its developers are advising people not to use it, I am also seeing the problem in Ubuntu 10.04. I found another workaround that's about as dirty as KoenBuys's, but much quicker fix:

roscd rein/build && cmake .. -DHAVE_SOCI=1 && cd -

That simply sets the HAVE_SOCI variable and bypasses the if() which (erroneously) produces the fatal error.

I've got Rein to compile with the _DIRTY_ CMakelists.txt hack to comment out the check for soci (after soci was present in /usr/include/soci):

#if (NOT HAVE_SOCI)
#    set (SOCI_INCLUDE_DIR /opt/ros/include/soci)
#    set (SOCI_LIB_DIR /opt/ros/lib)
#    set (CMAKE_REQUIRED_INCLUDES ${SOCI_INCLUDE_DIR})
#    check_include_file_cxx (soci.h HAVE_SOCI2)
#    if (NOT HAVE_SOCI2)
#        message (FATAL_ERROR "Error: cannot find SOCI header file: soci.h")
#    endif ()
#endif ()

Perhaps the Cmake logic is inverted now? I've tried the following CMake alternatives without any succes:

find_path (HAVE_SOCI /usr/include/soci/soci.h)
include (CheckIncludeFile)
check_include_files(/usr/include/soci/soci.h HAVE_SOCI)

Browsing the web found some people with similar problems but no clear solutions.
