I am trying to build these project from source. There are too many dependencies that I cannot keep track of and I don't have root privilages on this machine.
While I installed catkin_tools, I don't have a ROS distrubition which seems like it's necessary?
What's an easier way to build from source?

Yes, currently the code is set up as a ROS node since we used it to communicate between robots. So currently a ROS installation (tested for indigo and kinetic) is required which in turn requires root privileges. The wstool then automatically handles the dependencies which are listed here.

I agree, one should have the option to install with or without ROS. I opened an issue: #8
