Does open_vins run on ROS Melodic?

Question in the title.

For more info, I am trying to run open_vins on a Jetson AGX which ships with ubuntu 18.04 so I can't install ros-kinetic unless I build the whole thing from source.

Update:

I tried building open_vins on ros-melodic and I get the following error:

I have built opencv 3.4 on the jetson and made sure to point the CMake files to the opencv 3.4 so it doesn't use the opencv 3.2 that comes with ros-melodic.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Realized I forgot to build opencv with the contribs extras. Rebuilding opencv got it to work.
