Standalone RTABMAP not finding freenect2 driver :(

Hi,

So I have libfreenect2 driver installed on ~/ on Ubuntu18.04 and Protonect on ~/libfreenect2/build/bin works fine with my kinect v2. At this point I only have rtabmap built from source on my ~/rtabmap directory.
However, when I launch ~/rtabmap/bin/rtabmap and go under detection -> select source -> rgbd -> kinect v2   freenect2 driver is unavailable to use (colored in gray).

I am not sure how to specify cmake -Dfreenect2_DIR=$HOME/freenect2/lib/cmake/freenect2 for CMake based third-party application to find libfreenect2. I think that is my current problem I'm stuck at.

Can someone guide me how to get that correctly done so that when i build rtabmap from ~/rtabmap/build it'll find the correct freenect2 driver?

Right now here is what running cmake .. on ~/rtabmap/build shows about the Freenect2 location. And it shows  With Freenect2            = YES.



Thanks!
