Installing Gazebo11 side by side with new Gazebo not working

[pariaspe]

Environment

• OS Version: Ubuntu 22.04, on docker from osrf/ros:humble-desktop
• Source or binary build? Binary gazebo11 and gz-harmonic

Description

• Expected behavior: classic Gazebo and Gazebo Harmonic installed together
• Actual behavior: Only Gz Harmonic is installed

Steps to reproduce

After following the steps of Installing Gazebo11 side by side with new Gazebo, only Gz Harmonic is installed.

Tested on docker with the following Dockerfile:

FROM osrf/ros:humble-desktop

# Install common tools
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
    lsb-release wget gnupg software-properties-common \
    && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* 

# Install gazebo11
RUN add-apt-repository ppa:openrobotics/gazebo11-gz-cli
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
    gazebo11 \
    && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* 

      # Install Gazebo Harmonic
RUN apt-get update \
    && wget https://packages.osrfoundation.org/gazebo.gpg -O /usr/share/keyrings/pkgs-osrf-archive-keyring.gpg \
    && echo "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/pkgs-osrf-archive-keyring.gpg] http://packages.osrfoundation.org/gazebo/ubuntu-stable $(lsb_release -cs) main" | tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gazebo-stable.list > /dev/null \
    && apt-get update && apt-get install -y -q \
        gz-harmonic \
    && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*

ENTRYPOINT [ "/bin/bash" ]

Hi @j-rivero this is the issue which I mentioned yesterday in the weekly meet.

Confirmed the problem is there. I think that the problem is the version of gz-tools2 package that needs to be exactly 2.0.1-2 and I released it for Noble but not for Jammy. The packages should be now in the repo, could you please give it another try using the --no-cache option?

It's working now, thanks guys!

Hi @yaswanth1701 @j-rivero , sorry to bother you guys. Are gazebo_ros_pkgs also available?

Hi @pariaspe, I am using Jammy and did the binary installation of Gazebo Classic (side-by-side installation) and source installation of Gazebo Harmonic. I can use Gazebo Classic from the terminal as described in the installation tutorial but I faced the same issue with libgazebo11-dev installation.
