Hi @jalvarofa

I'm curious, why is it launching from /opt/ros/groovy/stacks/phantom_omni ? Typically, /opt/ros is reserved for Debian-packaged stacks.

You should create a Catkin workspace instead, and download and compile phantom_omni there. There are tutorials for building Catkin packages on the ROS wiki. Let me know if you can't find them.

Hi,

it's correct, with your instructions the package works good.

Cheers
