git clone https://github.com/YDLIDAR/YDLidar-SDK.git
cd YDLidar-SDK/build
cmake ..
make
sudo make install

Trying to follow the instruction to build the SDK for ROS driver from here. https://github.com/YDLIDAR/ydlidar_ros_driver
And ROS driver gives exact same error as mentioned "make cmake_check_build_system" Error. Even though I have download the SDK and did Python API installation.

I am new to ROS too. Am i missing something for how to build SDK.
is "cd YDLidar-SDK/build" is workspace or SDK has build folder I don't understand it.
Its basics, but give me some hints pls.

Thank you.

Try cd YDLidar-SDK/src instead of cd YDLidar-SDK/build

I created the build folder and continued as described and all was good.
