PCL Install instructions incorrect for Ubuntu.
Following the PCL install instructions from the custom PPA on Ubuntu "Trusty" gives:
workshop@workshop:~$ sudo apt-get install libpcl-all
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies: libpcl-all : Depends: libpcl-1.7-all but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Building the libpcl*.deb packages from scratch still results in this problem. If I install libboost1.54 and try to install ALL the .deb files creatred from the deb-src build, a miracle happens and the next apt-get -f install begins to install the previously uninstallable DEBs!
However, the libs are installed in /usr/include/pcl-1.7
qtTest.pro has two includes for the PCL library, one set to /usr/local/include/pcl-1.7 and the other set to /usr/include/pcl-1.6 and so won't build, giving a "point_types.h not found" error from qtcreator. Should I make those both point at /usr/include/pcl-1.7 or will that break things for people?
On Ubuntu "Utopic" you need currently to explicitly apt-get install libqt5multimedia5 or you will not be able to find the Camera.
Jochen Sprickerhof has now got a pcl-1.7 deb repo for Ubuntu working https://launchpad.net/~v-launchpad-jochen-sprickerhof-de/+archive/ubuntu/pcl
