Failed to invoke rospack to get compile flags for package 'tum_ardrone'

Question

rosmake ardrone_autonomy is ok, but rosmake tum_ardrone has problem. All source from wiki.ros.org/tum_ardrone.

My error is showed as follows:

{------------------------------------------------------------------------------- cd thirdparty && make make[1]: Entering directory /home/yaya/fuerte_workspace/tum_ardrone/thirdparty' making third party libs cd libcvd && make make[2]: Entering directory /home/yaya/fuerte_workspace/tum_ardrone/thirdparty/libcvd' make[2]: Nothing to be done for all'. make[2]: Leaving directory /home/yaya/fuerte_workspace/tum_ardrone/thirdparty/libcvd' cd gvars3 && make make[2]: Entering directory /home/yaya/fuerte_workspace/tum_ardrone/thirdparty/gvars3' make[2]: Nothing to be done for all'. make[2]: Leaving directory /home/yaya/fuerte_workspace/tum_ardrone/thirdparty/gvars3' make[1]: Leaving directory /home/yaya/fuerte_workspace/tum_ardrone/thirdparty' make -f Makefile_package make[1]: Entering directory /home/yaya/fuerte_workspace/tum_ardrone' mkdir -p bin cd build && cmake -Wdev -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=rospack find rosbuild`/rostoolchain.cmake ..

Look above for errors from rospack itself.  Aborting.  Please fix the
broken dependency!

I just start to use ROS, and spend a lot of time to this problem above, but still can't solve this error. Plase help me, thank you in advance.

Answer 1

Just some quick thoughts:

1. You are using fuerte. Are you certain that you downloaded the fuerte-branch of the ardrone_driver (Not the tum_ardrone)?

2. If I recall correctly, you had to compile the SDK seperatly first, before invoking ROS commands. Did you do that?

3. Could you reformat your question such that all your command line output is formatted? :)
