Hi all,

Has anyone tried to create a recipe for the freenect_stack package [1], to support a Kinect?

Looking at the current meta-ros recipes, it seems that this would require adding support for:
- libfreenect (which requires freeglut)
- rgbd_launch [2], which in requires depth_image_proc [3] (which has pcl-ros as a major dependency)

Although I am new to OpenEmbedded, I am willing to give this a try, but first wanted to check whether perhaps others were already working on this.

I know that at least the pcl-ros part seems a work in progress (see [4]) - which is probably one of the main challenges in converting this package.

I just uploaded a recipe for depth_image_proc at https://github.com/bulwahn/meta-ros/tree/pcl-v4. The pcl recipe still requires some work for some architecture-dependent options that must be set.

I will not continue working on this subject/branch for some time, so please take over the current state at https://github.com/bulwahn/meta-ros/tree/pcl-v4, and look what you need to improve, and if you can get the freenect_stack support running.

A stable pcl recipe is still highly appreciated and can be committed to the main branch :)

Lukas
