rosdep install error

[ryleymcc]

when i run the command rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro=${ROS_DISTRO} -y

i get

ERROR: the following packages/stacks could not have their rosdep keys resolved
to system dependencies:
tracking_pid: No definition of [python-setuptools] for OS version [focal]
otter_slam: Cannot locate rosdep definition for [cartographer_rviz]
map_inflating: Cannot locate rosdep definition for [xsens_driver]
nmea_navsat_driver: No definition of [python-serial] for OS version [focal]
sensors: Cannot locate rosdep definition for [xsens_driver]

so im going to try to compile each one from the source for ubuntu 20.04

[ryleymcc]

I can't figure this out. i have otter_slam and tracking_pid. No idea where to find map_inflating and sensors and i won't need navsat. going to try to continue with the install.

[ryleymcc]

after doing a catkin build i get the following.

This is the final dead end error for me.

Some of the issues you are having seem to be related to the packages not being available for ROS neotic yet. You will have to install them from source like you said (clone the code on github into your ROS workspace and build them yourself). From your error messages you seem to be missing:

python-setuptools
cartographer_rviz
xsens_driver
python-serial
rplidar_ros

The last error you are getting for otter_gazebo is because this repo is depending on jhlenes/usv_simulator for simulation. Install the packages from that repo as well if you are going to simulate. Hopefully things will work when you install that. I have unfortunately never tried to run this on ROS neotic myself, so I don't know if you will run into any other issues.

[ryleymcc]

Thanks for the quick reply. I'll try again this weekend.

Updated for Noetic. The readme has updated installation instructions.
