[SOLVED] Could not find a package configuration file for "qpOASES"

Could not find a package configuration file for "qpOASES"

I'm getting an error when compiling my code in dependency with qpOASES using catkin:

$ catkin build:

The Package qpOASES is already cloned inside the same catkin workspace

CMake Error at /opt/ros/noetic/share/catkin/cmake/catkinConfig.cmake:83 (find_package):
  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "qpOASES" with any
  of the following names:

    qpOASESConfig.cmake
    qpoases-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "qpOASES" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
  "qpOASES_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.  If
  "qpOASES" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has
  been installed.

The problem is that the qpOASES dependency is not compiled before the ros_wrap_safe_motion, hence it can't find it.

How can I solve that?

Solution

Adding the dependency to the package.xml file:

<build_depend>qpOASES</build_depend>

Has solved the problem in my case
