installing ros-*-mavlink from source -> $ROSINSTALL does not exist #409
Comments
Yep, that's correct. As-such I'd recommend that you switch to the new catkin build tool, which is much more simpler to use, and you can directly build mavlink in the same workspace. |
Not exactly
But new catkin tool is much easier, simply place mavlink-gpb package and build.
- git:
local-name: mavlink
uri: https://github.com/mavlink/mavlink-gbp-release.git
version: release/jade/mavlink/2015.10.10-0 |
Could you please fix the README accordingly? It's too verbose and outdated. It should contain less instructions, but those should be accurate. |
Ok. But need to decide what tool to use: old catkin_make or catkin. Catkin tools in my opinion more user friendly, also it is available for Indigo+ (even Hydro - Travis use it now). |
@ChristophTobler updates? |
when i follow these new source installation instructions I get (after wstool merge -t src /tmp/mavros.rosinstall): |
And if I try to install it like this: http://answers.ros.org/answers/115386/revisions/
as soon as I run "catkin_make" I get the error: |
https://github.com/mavlink/mavros/tree/master/mavros#source-installation - Build error note. If you has uninitialized workspace - use init. Just read |
works, thanks! |
@vooon could we update the docs accordingly? It seems quite a few people are challenged with building mavros. |
Will close this once we are confident it's foolproof. |
@LorenzMeier perhaps good idea is to merge mavlink and mavros source installation. With that will be guaranteed that mavlink is newest (which usually required for master branch). |

catkin_make_isolated --install-space $ROSINSTALL --install -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
-> $ROSINSTALL should be replaced by (the beginning of?) $ROS_PACKAGE_PATH
