Catkin.. *sigh*
by Ankur Sinha 02 Aug '13

02 Aug '13

Hi, So I tried to build rpms for groovy by downloading the entire source at once and letting catkin make it all, as documented here[1]. It doesn't work. I'm not surprised. A few things: 1. The --install-space /opt/... suggestion won't work with mock, since catkin uses this in all the setup scripts. So, the setup.sh files have $RPM_BUILD_ROOT in them. I'm considering filing a bug requesting them to provide a different --root option (like every other build system does!) This link will only work when building manually with root permissions. It isn't going to work for a system wide installation, and it certainly cannot be converted to a spec file. 2. Seeing that this method isn't going to work, I dug up on catkin a little more and found that one can actually bootstrap it all from source[2][3]. I'll give this a try today and tomorrow and see if I can "spec-ify" it. The catkin package in Fedora appears to be missing some stuff though: like the catkin_init_workspace script. Rich, is this a matter of just updating the Fedora catkin package? Should I file a bug? We're carrying 0.4x and the latest seems to be 0.5+ I'll see if I can get some help on the build-sys SIG about extending bloom to spew rpms. I think this needs to be dealt with once and for all.

bloom submitted for review

Hi, I went ahead and packaged bloom, in case people want to use it and get a hang of how it works. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=987843 I've mailed the ROS buildsig requesting info on extending bloom for rpms. If I get info that I can work on, I'll see if I have some free cycles to extend bloom. -- Thanks, Warm regards, Ankur (FranciscoD) http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ankursinha Join Fedora!

ROS Fuerte base packages all posted
by Rich Mattes 24 Jul '13

Hi all, I managed to get the rest of the packages required for the ROS fuerte base[1] packaged and posted to bugzilla! Hooray! The full list of review requests: rospack: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927458 ros: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927461 roscpp_core: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927462 python-genmsg: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927470 python-gencpp: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927473 python-genlisp: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927475 python-genpy: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927478 ros-std_msgs: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=928584 ros_comm: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=972345 ros-common_msgs: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=972346 actionlib: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=972348 I'll be trying to do some review swaps on -devel in the coming days to get things moving. There may still be a few rough edges in some of the packages, but I've got time this summer to get them into shape and ready to go. My initial smoke testing shows that utilities like roscore, rosbag, rosstack, rospack, etc. all work after /usr/share/ros/setup.sh is sourced.
