Problem during catkin_make

sdoughtie commented 5 years ago

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I've used linux for about 20 some years. Admittedly, I am a complete nube when it comes to compiling.

When I run 'catkin_make --pkg ydlidar' I get errors and warnings.

Error at catkin/cmake/catkin_workspace.cmake:95 (message):
  This workspace contains non-catkin packages in it, and catkin cannot build
  a non-homogeneous workspace without isolation.  Try the
  'catkin_make_isolated' command instead.

catkin_make_isolated fails also.

The end result is ydlidar is not part of the workspace and I am not able to launch.

I'm having the same issue... Did you manage to fix it?

Not related to the error you reported but this repo does not seem to be maintained anymore. Strongly recommended to swtich to https://github.com/YDLIDAR/ydlidar_ros ;-)

Unfortunately, I was not able to get it working.I thought it was just my inexperience.

I’ll try again with the link above. Thanks!
