I'm trying to build Hydro on OSX Mavericks by following the guide on the wiki. I am using an up-to-date homebrew, which got me this far. After several days of tracking down and fixing other compiler errors, I'm finally stuck on eigen_conversions and in particular eigen_msg.

./src/catkin/bin/catkin_make_isolated --install fails with an error having to do with implicit instantiation of undefined template 'std::allocator<void>'. The full make output is below. Any ideas? Is this an issue relating to clang on OSX? Do I need to update some include paths?

The issue you are seeing is caused by a problem in the roscpp_core upstream package and has been disused and fixed in https://github.com/ros/roscpp_core/pull/15. Unfortunately an updated release of this package has not been created for hydro, so you will have to make the change to package by hand.

cd <path to="" ros="" workspace="">/src/roscpp_traits/include/ros curl https://raw.github.com/ros/roscpp_core/8292898d4a90ecc8cf3d42c5ce4e51e14b02a8db/roscpp_traits/include/ros/message_forward.h -o message_forward.h

Here <path to="" ros="" workspace=""> is the path of your ros workspace.

Awesome! Thank you. This worked. Except now I'm running into other, unrelated problems. Currently stuck with "theora_image_transport/Packet.h not found". Any ideas?

I have not had a problem similar to that, sounds like something related to the image transport is broken.
