I was able to successfully configure and generate the build folder (KinectSLAM6D/build.). However, when I try to build it using make, I got an error saying gsl is not found. I am pretty sure this is just a configuration issue as I have gsl installed (they’re in usr/local), but I am unable to configure it. I have tried adding the following lines to CMakeList:

include_directories(${GSL_INCLUDE_DIRS} ${GSLCBLAS_INCLUDE_DIRS})
set(LIBS ${LIBS} ${GSL_LIBRARIES} ${GSLCBLAS_LIBRARIES})

I have copied the pertinent output below. I have found a couple of answers to compiling with gsl (adding -lgsl). However, I have no clue where to put that in CMakeLists or the generated MakeList and MakeList2 files.

  Here's the generated output.

    Something tells me, that adding target_link_libraries(Kinect6DSLAM ${LIBS}) will help you.

    Also, instead of constructs like

    set(VAR ${VAR} somethingelse)
    

    you can use this:

    list(APPEND VAR somethingelse)
