Build error: "By not providing "Findyak.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH..."

[yyxr75]

Hi there,
Error came up when I tried to build this in my ROS1 workspace.
I did what the 'readme' says, clone this repository into mycatkin_ws/src/
then I ran 'catkin build'
the error is:

By not providing "Findyak.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "yak", but
CMake did not find one.

Could not find a package configuration file provided by "yak" with any of
the following names:

yakConfig.cmake
yak-config.cmake

Add the installation prefix of "yak" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set "yak_DIR"
to a directory containing one of the above files. If "yak" provides a
separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been installed.

What should I do then?
Thx a lot

It looks like you're not building Yak, which is the underlying TSDF library that yak_ros uses. You will need to clone Yak into your workspace and install its dependencies before you can build yak_ros. It has a separate set of installation instructions, which can be found here.

Thank you a lot,
I tried to build and install 'yak' the project
I build it on CUDA 9.0 but error shows:

[ 5%] Building NVCC (Device) object CMakeFiles/yak.dir/src/cuda/yak_generated_tsdf_volume.cu.o
nvcc fatal : Unsupported gpu architecture 'compute_20'
CMake Error at yak_generated_tsdf_volume.cu.o.cmake:220 (message):

/home/yang/catkin_ws/src/yak/build/CMakeFiles/yak.dir/src/cuda/./yak_generated_tsdf_volume.cu

It seems I need to comment some config in some files
I was mostly told by the blog from webs that I should comment something in Makefile.config
but I can't find this file.

Strictly speaking that's a Yak issue rather than a yak_ros issue, since it's an error while compiling the Yak CUDA libraries. I made a new issue on the Yak issues page and I'll post further comments over there.

You can close this issue if your original question has been resolved.
