Description

Using image_transport::CameraPublisher I get this error for each publisher I create:

Failed to load plugin image_transport/theora_pub, error string: Could not find library corresponding to plugin image_transport/theora_pub. Make sure the plugin description XML file has the correct name of the library and that the library actually exists.

The error comes with this warning associated to pluginlib.ClassLoader:

given plugin name 'lib/theora_image_transport' should be '/theora_image_transport' for better portability

Research direction

Start by reproducing the error while creating an image_transport::CameraPublisher, then inspect the plugin description XML and the pluginlib.ClassLoader warning for theora_pub and theora_image_transport. Done means the Theora publisher library is found and loaded without the portability warning.
