catkin_make fails on ubuntu 16.04 LTS running ROS Kinetic

Hi there,
Trying to compile rpg_svo on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS with ROS Kinetic. Keep getting undefined reference errors from opencv_highgui as follows (There are over 3000 undefined reference errors but only showing some for lack of space):

Already tested my Qt verion as follows:

kshitij@kshitij-XPS:~/catkin_whiskeye$ qmake --version
QMake version 3.0
Using Qt version 5.5.1 in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

Am I missing something or perhaps using a wrong version of something? Would appreciate any kind of help.

use opencv3.2 instead
