Build error 'fatal error: nav_msgs/Odometry.h: No such file or directory'

Hi~ When catkin_make is commanded for compile as the README.md, The following build error (and similar errors) happens:

/home/user/catkin_ws/src/MLMapping/src/independent_modules/repub_rec.cpp:6:10: fatal error: nav_msgs/Odometry.h: No such file or directory
 #include "nav_msgs/Odometry.h"
          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

In file included from /home/user/catkin_ws/src/MLMapping/src/node_visualization.cpp:7:0:
/home/user/catkin_ws/src/MLMapping/src/rviz_vis.h:8:10: fatal error: visualization_msgs/Marker.h: No such file or directory
 #include <visualization_msgs/Marker.h>
          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

...and so on...

Build environment: Ubuntu 18.04, ROS Melodic

In my catkin_ws/common_msgs/nav_msgs folder, any header file, including Odometry.h, does not exist.
As I go to the GitHub for common_msgs/nav_msgs no header file is there too.

I've found a solution for it.

In the CMakeList.txt of MLMapping folder, I added the following sentences:

1. In find_package(), nav_msgs, visualization_msgs and pcl_conversions were added.
2. In generate_messages(), nav_msgs and visualization_msgs were added.

After that, such errors disappeared and its build succeeded.

It's nice VIO!
When I used the provided dataset the 'Large Scale Mapping Dataset', its 3D maps are drawn nicely.

Thank you for your feedback! I have updated the CMakeLists.txt.

Thanks. It's built and run well after the change. You may close this issue.
