I am trying to get orb_slam2_ros to compile and it needed an OpenCV version higher than 2.3. I have 4.2.0 but it doesn’t work but according to ROS, it has been tested to work on 2.4.11. Here is what I did:
- Download the source zip file.
- Extract it.
- Go into the directory and create a build folder.
- Go into the build folder and run
cmake ... There is gives me this:

Am I compiling it wrong? If not, how can I resolve this error?

Answer
You need to change opencv2.4.13/cmake/OpenCVDetectCXXCompiler.cmake (not sure which line) dumpversion to dumpfullversion
Explanation is that
In gcc with higher version, dumpversion function can’t get true full version number of compiler so that cmake progress will fail
Recommendation: On github, there plenty of refactored versions for both 4.2.0 and others. I recommend to upgrade to newer OpenCV versions for orb_slam_ros. Cmake lists and source files should be changed respectively.
