问题
I am using Point cloud library 1.5.1. When I run CMake 3.4.0-rc2 to build my project, it has error:
Could NOT find PkgConfig (missing: PKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE)
How do I fix this error?
回答1:
This error is raised because the pkg-config utility is not available on your system.
Using PkgConfig with CMake is not a truly cross-platform solution, as Windows does not come with the pkg-config utility installed. (The PCL developers should instead use find_package() in their CMake. Perhaps, this is worth opening up a bug report on their Github.) On Linux, this is an easy fix; you can install pkg-config like this:
sudo apt-get install pkg-config
However, on Windows, the process is more involved. There are several solutions for installing pkg-config on Windows documented here. I'm not sure which most directly applies to your situation, so I suggest reading through some of those. After successfully installing the pkg-config utility on your Windows machine, clear your CMake cache, and re-run CMake. This should remove the error, and allow your build to proceed.
