orocos-bfl

edit

Hello all, I was trying to catkin_make "robot_pose_ekf" package I cloned from github and it's CMakeLists.txt is: link text. The output error was:

checking for module 'orocos-bfl'

--   package 'orocos-bfl' not found

CMake Error at /usr/local/Cellar/cmake/3.1.3/share/cmake/Modules/FindPkgConfig.cmake:340 (message):

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

<== Failed to process package 'robot_pose_ekf':

Then I cloned "orocos-bfl" package from github and when I catkin_make it, the output was:

Packages not found in the workspace: orocos-bfl

Then I followed bfl-ROS.wiki the following lines to CMakeLists.txt of "robot_pose_ekf" package:

   1 find_package(PkgConfig)
   2 
   3 pkg_check_modules(BFL REQUIRED bfl)
   4 
   5 message("BFL include dirs:" ${BFL_INCLUDE_DIRS})
   6 message("BFL library dirs:" ${BFL_LIBRARY_DIRS})
   7 
   8 include_directories(${BFL_INCLUDE_DIRS})
   9 link_directories(${BFL_LIBRARY_DIRS})
  10 
  11 [..]
  12 
  13 # for every target using BFL:
  14 target_link_libraries(your_executable ${BFL_LIBRARIES})

In the original CMakeLists.txt there is a line:

pkg_check_modules(BFL REQUIRED orocos-bfl)

and I just substituted is orocos-bfl with bfl as suggested and insert rest of above lines. The result was, this did not work, output was:

package 'bfl' not found

which is installed already and can be found by rospack:
