RGBDSLAM make problem: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgsl
Not a question, but wanted to post this in case anyone else had the same problem. I had a problem makeing the RGBDSLAM tool from OpenSlam.org . I had the following error when trying to build it... ...
Linking CXX executable ../bin/rgbdslam
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgsl
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [../bin/rgbdslam] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/aaron/myRosDir/rgbdslam/build'
make[2]: *** [CMakeFiles/rgbdslam.dir/all] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/aaron/myRosDir/rgbdslam/build'
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/aaron/myRosDir/rgbdslam/build'
make: *** [all] Error 2
Taking a wild guess I downloaded GSL from GNU Scientific Library
http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/
And the build completed!
ps. this is my first post. How do I make code show up in a scrollable window?
