list_cameras not working about pointgrey_camera_driver HOT 4 CLOSED

It's very odd that your system can't find this executable— it's been in the package since the beginning. Please try the following commands to help me understand the state of your system:

dpkg -s ros-hydro-pointgrey-camera-driver  # show status and version of installed package
dpkg -L ros-hydro-pointgrey-camera-driver  # show files installed by package

In the first output, confirm that the status is "ok installed", and the version is 0.9.2. In the second, look for the list_cameras binary to be installed.

from pointgrey_camera_driver.

It seems to be OK.
I must have some wrong environmental variable because it works for a colleague with the same prompts and the same laptop. I've tried to reinstall it.

I've re-added the ROS environmental variables. It's working now.

Glad to hear. Please update/close #8 accordingly, as well.
