I've been trying the tutorials found here:

http://www.clearpathrobotics.com/assets/guides/ros/ROS%20Navigation%20Basics.html

which involves downloading and installing pointgrey_camera_driver. However, cmake fails to compile the package, because either the SDK or the headers are not being downloaded and installed properly (i'm not sure which). I noticed that the SDK was updated from version 2.9.3.13 to 2.9.3.43 on 27/04/2016 - less than a week ago, and I believe this is part of the problem. See here for more info:

Regardless, the problem can be solved by manual installing the 2.9.3.43 SDK
