Pinocchio and Gepetto-viewer Setup Guide for Ubuntu 20.04

This guide provides steps to successfully install Pinocchio and Gepetto-viewer on Ubuntu 20.04 with Python 3.8 and Qt5.

Step 1: Install Pinocchio

Follow the installation steps provided on the Pinocchio website:

• Visit Pinocchio Installation Guide and follow the instructions.

  • Don't forget to Configure environment variables as specified in the guide.

Step 2: run the following commands

$ sudo apt update $ sudo apt install libopenscenegraph-dev qt5-default $ sudo apt install -qqy robotpkg-py-qt5-gepetto-viewer $ sudo apt install -qqy robotpkg-py-qt5-gepetto-viewer-corba $ sudo apt install -qqy robotpkg-py*-example-robot-data

Step 3 : add the following to lines to your bashrc file

(need to check whether these lines are really necessary) export GEPETTO_GUI_PLUGIN_DIRS=${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/lib export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib64/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH

I guess robotpkg-py*-qt5-gepetto-viewer-corba should automatically come with libopenscenegraph-dev qt5-default and robotpkg-py*-qt5-gepetto-viewer, so there should be no need to install those explicitly

is it?. Let me double check about "robotpkg-py*-qt5-gepetto-viewer-corba". I have spent lot of time by doing trail and error to install gepetto-viewer properly. so i might have missed something.

Thanks @nim65s
