thanks you ;

When I apply "ls -lah", then cd build and "ls -lah" again :

crabe@PRJ11:~$ roscd

It looks like you have permission issues with your folders on catkin_ws. Please run "ls -lah" on your catkin_ws and then run "cd build" and "ls -lah" again, and update your question with the result.

Please note the / in front of catkin_generated. That directory is typically not found in the root of your partition. It's very likely there is no /catkin_generated directory.

It looks like Catkin is instructing cmake to try and create the catkin_generated directory in /, which will fail, as the crabe user doesn't have the access permissions to do so.

I don't know right now what is causing this, but I doubt permissions are a problem here.

I had two find_package(catkin REQUIRED ...) at the same CMakeLists.txt, when I removed one the error stopped.
