wiki: installation instructions are incomplete (and potentially confusing) #49

See roslint error on ROS Answers fi.

The Extrinsic Calibration of Camera(s) to a Static Target (Depricated) tutorial points users to the industrial_extrinsic_cal ROS wiki page, which under Installation seems to suggest that only gflags, glog and ceres are required dependencies.

The package manifest for industrial_extrinsic_cal contains many more dependencies, but the wiki page only tells users to "Install industrial_extrinisc_cal [sic] from source". The industrial_calibration repository does not provide any additional information on how to install the package (no readme fi).

For people inexperienced with installing ROS pkgs from source, there should probably be either a very short explanation on how to make sure they have all dependencies installed, or they should be pointed to the relevant documentation on the ROS wiki.
