Missing instruction for conda users #21

Closed davidoort closed 2 years ago

davidoort commented 2 years ago

If someone is using a fresh conda python environment, they'll have to install empy. I had to run conda install -c conda-forge empy Otherwise, building smb_gazebo as mentioned in the installation instructions throws an error.

As a follow-up when trying to run roslaunch smb_gazebo sim.launch launch_gazebo_gui:=true inside a conda env, I am missing the following dependencies: rospkg defusedxml This can either be mentioned as part of the main instructions (though maybe conda is not recommended) or in the troubleshooting section.

I have never used conda myself and thus never considered setting up the SMB environment using conda. But based on what I know about conda, and given the fact that you now are setting everything up in a conda environment, it might very well be worth having this extra information readily available for the participants/SMB users in the documentation.

Solved with ETHZ-RobotX/smb_dev#38
