ubuntu20.04 system
compilation error :
By not providing "FindGeographicLib.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this
project has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by
"GeographicLib", but CMake did not find one.
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "GeographicLib"
with any of the following names:
GeographicLibConfig.cmake
geographiclib-config.cmake
Add the installation prefix of "GeographicLib" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
"GeographicLib_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If
"GeographicLib" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it
has been installed.
Solved :
1 installation
sudo apt-get install ros-melodic-geographic-*
sudo apt-get install geographiclib-*
sudo apt-get install libgeographic-*
2 Establish a soft link
In the ubuntu20.04 environment, after installing the package, the cmake compilation still cannot find the path.
This is because:
The geographiclib-dev installer puts the FindGeographicLib.cmake file in: /usr/share/cmake/geographiclib/FindGeographicLib.cmake
The correct location is: /usr/share/cmake-3.16/Modules
Indeed it depends by the version of cmake currently installed.
solve:
sudo ln -s /usr/share/cmake/geographiclib/FindGeographicLib.cmake /usr/share/cmake-3.16/Modules/
Compile again, successfully.
