hil_interface missing mavlink include (kinetic)

/home/jgoppert/git/catkin/src/rotors_simulator/rotors_hil_interface/include/rotors_hil_interface/hil_interface.h:105:3: error: ‘mavlink_hil_gps_t’ does not name a type

I am working on fixing this. If I include the mavlink common header I get a bit further but get more errors. @gbmhunter have you run into this before?

If I use the indigo-devel branch as specified in rosinstall it works, but it would be good to use the version released with kinetic and get rotors to officially support kinetic.

Current, working workspace in kinetic:

@jgoppert I have definitely received this error before, I can't remember exactly when and why though sorry! I remember "grepping" the type name through my entire computer and finding the right include through that.

@jgoppert Please let me know if you figure out what to include to get this to build properly. I am running into the same issues.

[Maunsi]

Hello, has anyone found the solution to this?

[msadowski]

I'm running into the same issue. The hil messages seem to be defined in mavlink generated lib (which doesn't seem to be included in any of the packages specified in the HIL docs).

Any workaround for this? The full error on kinetic is:
