@d33z thanks for catching that typo, fixed now

ffurrer commented Sep 8, 2015

I had to install poco, boost-python, gtk+ and ros/deps/gtest, ros/deps/yaml-cpp-0.3, and I installed gazebo6 instead of gazebo 2.2.5 all with brew.

brew install poco boost-python gtk+ ros/deps/gtest ros/deps/yaml-cpp-0.3 gazebo6

Then, pcl_ros CMakeLists.txt needed to be updated according to:
http://wiki.ros.org/jade/Migration#Eigen_CMake_Module_in_cmake_modules
I had to fix the PCLConfig.cmake as suggested here: PointCloudLibrary/pcl#492 (comment)
and use the (ugly) fix as suggested here: ros-visualization/qt_gui_core#57 (comment)
Then I had to adjust the python paths in line 86 and 87, to match my python version (2.7.10_2 instead of 2.7.10). Otherwise this worked perfectly, thanks.
Not sure if all of this is actually needed, but like this it worked for me.

@ffurrer I've created pullrequests for most of the things you suggested. However rviz still segfaults (as usual) when installing all according to rosdep. Which ogre formula did you use?

Hi! when I try to try line 84: rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro jade -y --skip-keys libogre-dev -skip-keys gazebo-dev

I've got the next error:

rosdep install ...

rosdep db

Does anyone know what i'm doing wrong?
Thanks

EDIT: Need to put - in skip-keys

I've got the same problem as @mikepurvis I must install gazebo6 with ogre1.7

How did you do to link with ogre1.9?

@jmtatsch

@grafoteka I'm currently also stuck at building ogre1.9. Ogre1.7 and Gazebo 6 works but Rviz then is not properly fixed. Crescante seems to have a solution ros-visualization/rviz#782 (comment)

I went back to Ogre1.74 and Gazebo 5 which work well even with El Cap

Hi @jmtatsch!
I've done a clear installation of OS X El Capitan and I'm trying to install it again.
Everything goes right until the script begins to install ros packages, then it fails with console_bridge.cmake.

Do you know what can I do?

@MatthiasLehner
Copy link

Hi @grafoteka,

I occured the same error that you are describing and I managed to fix it by installing console_bridge by hand.
Just type "brew install console_bridge" and you should be set.

Edit: You should probably do the same for the packages urdfdom, poco, gtest and SIP.

mid 2015 mbp OS X 10.11.1

under prerequisites (line 65) there is this line
brew install homebrew/science/pcl --HEAD --without-apps --without-qt

I kept getting errors similar to:

make: *** [all] Error 2
Warning: It appears you have MacPorts or Fink installed.
Software installed with other package managers causes known problems for
Homebrew. If a formula fails to build, uninstall MacPorts/Fink and try again.

READ THIS: https://git.io/brew-troubleshooting
If reporting this issue please do so at (not Homebrew/homebrew):

so I went with

@ ameerhamzakhan03101992 and BluFoot:
this (http://answers.ros.org/question/224956/no-definition-of-procps-for-os-osx/) should do (at least partially):

"Put a file named CATKIN_IGNORE in the opencv_apps package, so that catkin doesn't try to build it. Obviously this doesn't get you a complete install, but you should be able to proceed.
You may also need to run rosdep with the --skip-keys=procps option to make it ignore the bad dependency."

good luck

Here is the whole picture of my recent attempts to install Jade on OSX:
Following (most of) the steps (and some of them multiple times with and eventually without errors) installed 'some ROS', which, however, was not fully operational.
Some 'solutions' are rather work arounds and may not reflect good programming practice.
Following is the original setup.sh with additional comments, corrections and new instructions that were required in my case (after a number of attempts and possibly messing up part of my system). Some of the steps may not be necessary in other cases. (During the attempts I never uninstalled homebrew and I never tried to use zsh.)
'.bashrc' on a MAC should be the '.profile' file in the home directory. Please have a look at the man pages - OSX apparently only reads the first out of number of configuration files

The number 1 issue you are likely to encounter is with Homebrew or Python packages whose
binary components link against system Python. This will result in runtime segfaults,
especially in rviz. If you suspect this is occurring, you can attempt to remove and

Aaccording to 'official' instruction (http://wiki.ros.org/jade/Installation/OSX/Homebrew/Source) - tried both and can't remember any difference (during install)
rosinstall_generator desktop_full --rosdistro jade --deps --wet-only --tar > jade-desktop-full-wet.rosinstall
wstool init -j8 src jade-desktop-full-wet.rosinstall

Install the necessary ROS dependencies
sudo rosdep init
rosdep update

There my be the following eror during the next instruction, with the solution one can find somewhere.
The 'doesn't get you a complete install' may also be the reason for some later problems, but I could not figure out a better solution:
ERROR: the following packages/stacks could not have their rosdep keys resolved
to system dependencies:
opencv_apps: No definition of [procps] for OS [osx]
Resolve like this:
Put a file named CATKIN_IGNORE in the opencv_apps package, so that catkin doesn't try to build it. Obviously this doesn't get you a complete install, but you should be able to proceed.
You may also need to run rosdep with the --skip-keys=procps option to make it ignore the bad dependency.
http://answers.ros.org/question/224956/no-definition-of-procps-for-os-osx/

Furthermore there may be error in 'executing command [brew install vtk --with-qt]':
Warning: homebrew/science/vtk-6.3.0 already installed
ERROR: the following rosdeps failed to install
homebrew: Failed to detect successful installation of [vtk --with-qt]
May possibly be resolved by uninstalling vtk first (vtk seems to be reinstalled by the following 'rosdep...' then)
brew uninstall vtk

rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro jade -y

fix pcl_ros according to ros-perception/perception_pcl#106 (comment)
well this patch doesnt work yet but you get the idea
The sed-instruction n the original script does not work on a MAC (with the 'offical' sed) (it is the 'newline' that causes the problems)
General remark: carefully check 'solutions' from the web - there are some differences in MAC/linux syntax.
if [ -d src/perception_pcl/pcl_ros ]; then
sed -i -e 's/find_package(Eigen3 REQUIRED)/find_package(PkgConfig)

fix Ogre 1.74 according to mike
Grabbing these older meshes allows rviz to run with Ogre 1.7 rather than Ogre 1.8+. Although formulae and patches
exist to build Ogre 1.9, rviz, and Gazebo together, I have found this approach to be the most solid and consistent.
if [ -d src/rviz ]; then
pushd src/rviz/ogre_media/models
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ros-visualization/rviz/hydro-devel/ogre_media/models/rviz_cone.mesh > rviz_cone.mesh

to work around the dyld issue mikepurvis/ros-install-osx#12 (comment)
well this patch doesnt work yet but you get the idea
sed not working on MAC like given below added 'export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/ros/jade/lib' to '/opt/ros/jade/bin/rosrun' manually
(sed -i -e 's/#!/usr/bin/env bash/export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/ros/jade/lib/g' /opt/ros/jade/bin/rosrun)

Source the build ROS, prepare the workspace and from then on only source this one
source /opt/ros/jade/setup.bash
cd ~/ros_catkin_ws
mv src src_isolated
mv devel devel_isolated
mv build build_isolated
mkdir src

change and source .profile: 'source ~/ros_catkin_ws/devel_isolated/setup.bash' first

catkin_make
echo 'source ~/ros_catkin_ws/devel_isolated/setup.bash' >> ~/.profile

Homebrew installation of PCL libraries (homebrew/science/pcl, Line# 65) isn't working currently due to upstream problem. If you get the above error as I did, I have a solution. Download PCL 1.8 master from GitHub (https://github.com/PointCloudLibrary/pcl). Edit the " /opt/ros/jade/share/pcl_conversions/cmake/pcl_msgsConfig.cmake" using nano or VI editor. Just find the text "pcl-1.6" in the file and replace them with "pcl-1.8". And then follow the remaining steps.

@jacksonkr - facing the same issue as you I think... Have you gotten a solution?

@jaeyoung-han
Copy link

@RPEK001, @jacksonkr

I had the same issue -- "Python.h" file not found, and I solved.

The reason is that the version of python described in line 106 and 107 of the above code is different from your actual version.
Check the version of your python. Your python version may be 2.7.11.

python --version

Makefiles are already created with invalid version number, you should reset and restart build with your python version number.

(I deleted ros_catkin_ws directory and restarted from line 73.)

In case of python 2.7.11, use below.

catkin build \
  -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
  -DPYTHON_LIBRARY=/usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.11/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/libpython2.7.dylib \

A small note to the previous comment:
You may just delete ros_catkin_ws/build directory and start catkin build right away.

So the commands to fix this issue will be:

rm -rf build

and

catkin build \
  -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
  -DPYTHON_LIBRARY=/usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.11/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/libpython2.7.dylib \

@ramamoorthyluxman an easy to fix the sha256 not match error, you should not download the cminpack-1.3.4.tar.gz through browser, you chould get it by thunder or download it from here and change the file name to cminpack-1.3.4.tar.gz. the SHA256 matched, take a look at this page.
And then follow the remaining steps, it worked for me.
