Rosbuild error

[Olalekan Ogunmolu]

Hi,

Is there any reason why you chose rosbuild over catkin in the way you set up your stack?

When I try to rosbuild gps_agent_pkg, I run into build errors as highlighted below:

rosbuild] Building package gps_agent_pkg

Failed to invoke /opt/ros/indigo/bin/rospack deps-manifests gps_agent_pkg

[rospack] Error: package 'gps_agent_pkg' depends on non-existent package 'pr2_controller_manager' and rosdep claims that it is not a system dependency. Check the ROS_PACKAGE_PATH or try calling 'rosdep update'

I should mention that rosdep update was called before this error was generated.

With catkinized packages, one could do rosdep install --from-paths . within src/gps_pkg_agent and all the dependencies within the manifest.xml file would be automatically installed but that doesn't seem to work in this case. Would appreciate your help.

I am at a loss as to what I may be doing wrong.

See my other response on the github issue that you created.

Regarding your build error, it just looks like you are missing one or more of the pr2 ROS packages.

Hi there,

Thanks again for this package.

I have a single-DoF robot to which I have developed a MoveIt package for. 

I am trying to adopt your code for controlling the 1-DoF motion of the robot (https://github.com/lakehanne/superchicko/tree/indigo-devel). The head of the mannequine is controlled by the base bladder that lies under the head. 

I looked at the gps.proto file and I think I might need to edit the configuration for the pr2_robot that is there, as well as adopt the AGENT_ROS python code but I am not sure on how exactly to write my own gps plugin to the robot I have developed.  

 I would like to avoid gazebo by all means because of its lack of sdf conversion issues.

I looked for the documentation for the AGENT_ROS example but it's kind of sparse. Is there documentation somewhere that guides on plugging in your code to a different ROS-described robot?

Sincerely,

Lekan
