I'm using a full install of ROS Groovy and am trying to get point clouds from bag files. When I attempt to run bag_to_pcd I the following error:
[rosrun] Couldn't find executable named bag_to_pcd below /opt/ros/groovy/share/pcl_ros
In fact, none of the pcl_ros nodes listed in the documentation are there. Have they moved somewhere else?
They install in /opt/ros/groovy/bin. That should be directly accessible from your shell $PATH, if it was set up correctly, but it is not the correct place for rosrun to find it.
This looks like a bug. Several packages, converted to catkin, are mistakenly installing executables in inappropriate places. You should probably open an issue to get that resolved.
Right on. I opened an issue here: https://github.com/ros-perception/perception_pcl/issues/5

please provide some more information. Did you compile from source or use a prebuilt binary? Does /opt/ros/groovy/pcl_ros exist maybe it is inside the package perception_pcl
I just did the standard Desktop-Full install using
sudo apt-get install ros-groovy-desktop-full. The pcl_ros directory does exist, but there are only two XML files in it and a cmake directory. If I runsudo apt-get install ros-groovy-pcl-rosit just tells me it's already installed.
