How to install ROS Wrapper on Ubuntu 14.04?

[JKjel1]

I am trying to install the ROS Wrapper on Ubuntu 14.04 by following this tutorial: https://github.com/intel-ros/realsense. It says in the link that the tutorial supports ROS Indigo on Ubuntu 14.04 but it seems that the tutorial does not supports this version of Ubuntu.

I have tried installing the latest SDK from the Debian packages but it only supports Ubuntu 16/18.

Hello JKjel1, Thank you for your interest in the Intel RealSense Technology. You can check out this issue on GitHub, when another RealSense user asked the same question: https://github.com/IntelRealSense/librealsense/issues/1030 As long as the kernel is compatible with RealSense SDK, you can use the https://github.com/IntelRealSense/librealsense/blob/master/doc/installation.md to build the library from source (since on Ubuntu 14 the debian package is missing) Thank you and best regards, Eliza

The errors i get when executing the previous command:

My problem is fixed. The newest version of Intel RealSense ROS Wrapper that should be downloaded didn't work for me. I used an older version of the RealSense ROS Wrapper and then it worked.
