flir-camera-description unable to locate

Hey bro, I am facing error regarding the flir camera description installation.
I am using ros melodic and in that I am unable to install this description.

Error:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package ros-melodic-flir-camera-description

The issue is that flir_camera_description package is not available for ROS Melodic as mentioned on ROS Index. However, you can try cloning this repository and just copying the flir_camera_description package to your catkin_ws/src and building it with all other packages using catkin_make command as described in the README.md

All that being said, we would strongly recommend you to switch to ROS Noetic since ROS Melodic has already reached EOL.
