problem with common_msgs

Question

when I try to build a package, I get this error:

dede@ubuntu:~/electric_workspace/sandbox/labrob_ros_quadrotor$ rosmake labrob_quadrotor_sensors . . . . In file included from /home/dede/electric_workspace/sandbox/labrob_ros_quadrotor/labrob_quadrotor_sensors/include/labrob_quadrotor_sensors/labrob_gazebo_camera.h:74:0, from /home/dede/electric_workspace/sandbox/labrob_ros_quadrotor/labrob_quadrotor_sensors/src/labrob_gazebo_camera.cpp:31: /opt/ros/electric/stacks/diagnostics/diagnostic_updater/include/diagnostic_updater/diagnostic_updater.h:47:41: fatal error: common_msgs/DiagnosticArray.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. . . but

what can I do to solve this problem?

Very weird error. Normally, the include line in diagnostic_updater should not include common_msgs/DiagnosticArray.h but diagnostic_msgs/DiagnosticArray.h. Try reinstalling the stack diagnostics:

sudo apt-get install --reinstall ros-electric-diagnostics`
