Hello! I meet a problem with building ROS module even with provided docker compose file.
always at the stage of configuration and generation of make file I have an error:

CMake Error at src/chrono_swig/chrono_python/CMakeLists.txt:1203 (target_link_libraries):
Error evaluating generator expression:

 $<TARGET_PROPERTY:fastcdr,TYPE>

Target "fastcdr" not found.

My host system is Ubuntu 22.04 with ROS2 humble. It should not makes any impact on the docker building process but still...
Do you have any ideas what exactly might be wrong

Hi Alex,

Sorry for the late reply. We are aware of this bug, and please expect a fix in the very recent future. We will let you know once its merged into main.

The issue is deeper then it seems on the surface and ties to a couple chrono modules, a little beyond a forum reply patch guide.

Thank you!
