Build error - vicalib

[vishnukumarts]

after all the dependencies installed, i am finally stuck with the below error,

CMakeFiles/vicalib.dir/src/vicalib-engine.cc.o: In function visual_inertial_calibration::VicalibEngine::InitTask()': vicalib-engine.cc:(.text+0x5c37): undefined reference to calibu::KannalaBrandtCamera::NumParams'
vicalib-engine.cc:(.text+0x5e3a): undefined reference to `calibu::Rational6Camera::NumParams'

Can I assume you got this due to your post in #54 ?

I have the same issue on Ubuntu 18.04
I could install all dependencies, but when trying to compile vicalib I get this:

CMakeFiles/vicalib.dir/src/vicalib-engine.cc.o: In function `visual_inertial_calibration::VicalibEngine::InitTask()':
vicalib-engine.cc:(.text+0x5db7): undefined reference to `calibu::KannalaBrandtCamera<double>::NumParams'

it compiled after three fixes in vicalib-engine.cc.
Since it is only a fixed amount of parameters, I just counted the amount of parameters that overwrite it and hardcoded it:

bad Eigen::VectorXd params_(calibu::KannalaBrandtCamera<double>::NumParams);
good Eigen::VectorXd params_(10);

bad Eigen::VectorXd params_(calibu::Rational6Camera<double>::NumParams);
good Eigen::VectorXd params_(10);

bad Eigen::VectorXd params_(calibu::LinearCamera<double>::NumParams);
good Eigen::VectorXd params_(4);

This doesn't really deal with the original issue, but it seems to do the trick. My guess is that somebody refactored Calibu slightly, and the newest master doesn't match anymore with this one.
