This, among other things, prevent Gazebo Garden from being installed.

That is an issue. I'm not sure how I missed that. I'll fix it

You said "among other things". Are there other issues I'm not seeing?

beniaminopozzan commented 1 year ago

Well, as you are not running the setup script, the whole PX4 toolchain is not installed. At the same time, most of it is installed when you install ROS (i.e. the compiler for SITL). But, for example, NuttX will not be installed. That is what I meant with "among other things".

I see. Thanks for the contribution I appreciate it
