Hello sir, thank you for the swift reply!

Is there a documentation somewhere, I am unable to find it!

Best regards

Hello again @m11112089

I have now run the command you prompted me to run, but I am still unable to symlink install, and I'm once again, given the following error.

--- stderr: visp_tracker                                               
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:17 (find_package):
  By not providing "Findimage_proc.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project
  has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by
  "image_proc", but CMake did not find one.

  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "image_proc" with
  any of the following names:

    image_procConfig.cmake
    image_proc-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "image_proc" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
  "image_proc_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.  If
  "image_proc" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has
  been installed.

May this be related to the fact that when I run the

$ sudo apt-get install visp-doc

This happens when in 3rd of the installation process, which is denoted step 2?

Could you please clarify whether you're looking for guidance on installing the vision_visp package and its dependencies, or if you're seeking instructions for using vision_visp after it's been installed?

If you're in need of a comprehensive installation guide that includes steps for installing third-party dependencies like camera_calibration_parsers, I'm here to assist.

Furthermore, documenting any issues encountered during the compilation of the vision_visp ROS2 rolling branch could greatly benefit both current and future users. To this end, we might consider initiating an issue to gather these errors or creating a Pull Request to update the README.md on the repository. This method has proven to be quite effective in addressing and resolving similar issues in the past. @fspindle, what are your thoughts on this approach?

exemplified by:
Issue #129: Build failed when VISP is installed from source code.
Issue #130: stderr: visp_tracker in rolling branch.
Request #134: Request for Humble support.

It appears you've encountered another package dependency issue, this time with image_proc. The error you're seeing indicates that the image_proc package, which is required by visp_tracker, isn't installed or can't be found by CMake.

I've experienced a similar error in the past. Installing the image_proc package directly should resolve this problem. You can install it by running the following command:

$ sudo apt install ros-humble-image-proc

In general, I am trying to install VISP, such that I can use it in conjunction with ROS2 to do some virsual servoing in a robot simulation.

I am finding trouble in installing VISP in general :(

I think I might have gotten it installed on my Virtual Machine now - Let me try to install the vision bridge as well.

Hello sir,

I also want to be able to use vision_visp in ros humble. However, we encountered many problems during the implementation process. Is there any good way to use it? Or when will the humble version of vision_visp be released?

Best regards
