# Preprocessing:

Hi @yfyf
Sorry for trouble, but I'm having problem with understanding of how this problem can be fixed and I hoped that you could know the answer.
I followed instruction you gave here and everything work fine on preparation stage but then I try to run this script I receive following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "pbstreamreader.py", line 6, in
from cartographer.mapping.proto.serialization_pb2 import SerializationHeader, SerializedData
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cartographer.mapping.proto.serialization_pb2'

For installation I used official guide and I'm trying to get trajectories from map my robot created, so I don't think that problem in cartographer itself. Appreciate any hints.
