sudo apt install ros-melodic-jsk-recognition
sudo apt install ros-melodic-jsk-hark-msgs 
  • pointcloud library version 1.8:
# Install pcl 1.8
# More information on https://pcl.readthedocs.io/projects/tutorials/en/master/compiling_pcl_posix.html#compiling-pcl-posix
wget https://github.com/PointCloudLibrary/pcl/archive/refs/tags/pcl-1.8.1.tar.gz  # get source code
tar xvf pcl-pcl-1.8.1.tar.gz  # extract archive
cd pcl-pcl-1.8.1 && mkdir build && cd build  # create build folder
ccmake ..  # here configure install folder in /usr instead of /usr/local
sudo make -j`nproc` install  # compile and install 

Then install as catkin package:
