Thanks Joq, but surely this shouldn't be all that complex, or obscure, a process as, all I'm trying to do is to get RGBDSLAM working on a clean Ubuntu install.
i.e.: 1) Setup clean OS (Ubuntu 11.10 64bit) 2) Setup ROS (electric) 3) Setup and build RGBDSLAM 4) Setup Kinect drivers 5) Run RGBDSLAM
After loads of work, I'm finally up to stage 4, still without being able to contribute anything to further development of RGBDSLAM.
With clear, tested, environment setup instructions there shouldn't be any missing packages. Can rosinstall help me out here?

P.S. To install the Kinect drivers I simply ran 'sudo apt-get install ros-electric-openni-kinect'. Perhaps I need to build them as per the Source Based Installation in http://www.ros.org/wiki/openni_kinect... any thoughts?
