hector_gazebo_plugin catkin_make error

I tried to build a ros package downloaded, and while building i get this error

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

hector_gazebo_pluginsConfig.cmake
hector_gazebo_plugins-config.cmake

Add the installation prefix of "hectorgazeboplugins" to CMAKEPREFIXPATH or set "hectorgazebopluginsDIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If "hectorgazeboplugins" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been installed. Call Stack (most recent call first): smbcommon/smbdescription/CMakeLists.txt:4 (findpackage)

The ros package you downloaded seems to have unmet dependencies on your system.

To download and install all the dependencies, use rosdep at the root of your workspace:

  1. Go to your workspace: cd your_ws ​

  2. Run rosdep install: 

    rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src -r -y

  3. If the issue persists:

    sudo apt install ros-noetic-hector-gazebo-plugins
