编译 ROS ORB_SLAM2 时未定义的引用

Question

I am trying to compile this version of ORB SLAM2 and after fixing some library import errors, I got this:

CMakeFiles/Stereo.dir/src/ros_stereo.cc.o: In function `main':

Here is what my ORB_SLAM2/Examples/ROS/ORB_SLAM2/CMakeLists.txt looks like:

I tried to add Boost dependencies in the CMake file but nothing helps. I tried to recompile Boost for version 1.67 and recompiled OpenCV version 3.2. None of these things helped. Any help is appreciated!

This is an annoying compatibility error. The ORB SLAM you are trying to use only works with Ubuntu 18.04. But, on the ROS ORB SLAM page, they have a new one called orb_slam_ros (click here ) that does the same thing.

NOTE: The new one doesn't say that it outputs ROS maps but using Octomap, you can convert a PointCloud to a Map. NOTE: This is tested in Ubuntu 20.04 ROS Noetic. As of now, 20.10 doesn't work.
