按顺序安装

1 安装依赖

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y \
    cmake \
    g++ \
    git \
    google-mock \
    libboost-all-dev \
    libcairo2-dev \
    libeigen3-dev \
    libgflags-dev \
    libgoogle-glog-dev \
    liblua5.2-dev \
    libprotobuf-dev \
    libsuitesparse-dev \
    libwebp-dev \
    ninja-build \
    protobuf-compiler \
    python-sphinx

2 安装ceres

git clone https://ceres-solver.googlesource.com/ceres-solver
cd ceres-solver
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -G Ninja
ninja
ninja test
sudo ninja install

3 安装cartographer和cartographer_ros

# Install wstool and rosdep.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y python-wstool python-rosdep ninja-build

# Create a new workspace in 'catkin_ws'.
mkdir catkin_ws
cd catkin_ws
wstool init src

# Merge the cartographer_ros.rosinstall file and fetch code for dependencies.
wstool merge -t src https://raw.githubusercontent.com/googlecartographer/cartographer_ros/master/cartographer_ros.rosinstall
wstool update -t src

# Install deb dependencies.
# The command 'sudo rosdep init' will print an error if you have already
# executed it since installing ROS. This error can be ignored.
sudo rosdep init
rosdep update
rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro=${ROS_DISTRO} -y

# Build and install.
catkin_make_isolated --install --use-ninja
source install_isolated/setup.bash

这里需要注意，有时提示找不到eigen3，可以在usr中搜索eigen，找到FindEigen3.cmake，放入到cartographer/cmake/modules文件夹中。
