It seems the answer can be found here.

After some more investigating, I'm pretty sure the issue here is that I don't understand cmake, or how to update the CMakeLists.txt to include and properly link to the PCL library.

I installed pcl using the instructions here, yet it still fails on that file :(

If that's not good enough, I also have what appear to be several dozen libpcl packages installed, plus ros-indigo-pcl-ros.

Ah, I wasn't aware pcl was separate from ROS. That's probably it.

Hi, I am working on a simple turtlebot node that uses base_local_planner to generate velocity commands. If put the following in my .cpp source file:

#include <base_local_planner/trajectory_planner_ros.h>

The compilation (using catkin_make) fails with the following error message:

[100%] Building CXX object turtlebot_example/CMakeFiles/turtlebot_example_node.dir/src/turtlebot_example_node.cpp.o

It seems like the error is in some header in ros/indigo/include, which is frustrating.
