Can you add a link to this xsens-tf-bridge/CMakeLists.txt file?

[francesco-romano]

@drdanz https://github.com/robotology-playground/human-dynamics-estimation/blob/master/human-viz-bridge/CMakeLists.txt

But it happens also on other repositories (not on the idl_ros but on the thrift generation)

[drdanz]

This should be fixed, whatever the problem was. IDL tests are currently running on appveyor
