But perhaps this is something that should be fixed upstream (i.e. in
catkin)? I'm not sure if it is still in development or if it is frozen
though, since for ROS2 they are using a different tool.
Yes, talking to upstream about it is a good idea and judging from the
git repo it is quite active:
https://github.com/ros/catkin/commits/kinetic-devel
Is there a discussion upstream on some mailing list or some issue
tracker? Any suggestion about how to implement it?
Btw. would you be interested to
regularly work on the packages? There is still a lot that needs to be
done, so we would be glad to have an other helping (and thinking ;) )
hand. You can find the current process here:
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianScience/Robotics/ROS
I'm happy to help with the message packages, I'm not sure about the
other
packages, since I'm not a big ROS user (I use it mostly to test the
compatibility with YARP), but if I can help I'll be happy to.
Also btw, I'm working on packaging YARP, it would be great to have it in
the debianscience/robotics packages...
I'm attaching the patch for ros-common-msgs, I'm not sure about the
dependecies here. For example libactionlib-msgs-dev depends on
libstd-msgs-dev, probably because the messages in this library use
messages defined in ros-std-msgs. Therefore I added a dependency to
ros-std-msgs in the ros-actionlib-msgs package, since, in order to
generate bindings for some other language, this package must be
available. Anyway it is not strictly required as for a library that will
not work if the other is missing, so perhaps it should be recommended
instead? What do you think?
If this is ok for you, I will apply the same kind of patch to all the
other message packages and push the commit straight to the repositories,
otherwise let me know, and I will post the patches here one by one.
Cheers,
Daniele
