Drop catkin as colcon builds ROS1 just fine #51

Closed Timple closed 5 months ago

Timple commented 5 months ago

While debugging I noticed some fallbacks to colcon which are not required.

Colcon builds ROS1 just fine, also saves a dependency.

Any reason for that? colcon is not in Ubuntu 22.04 so will not merge.

Aha, I now see colcon is indeed not apt-installable. I now also get the construction why the apt is split into three sections. Never really thought of that but I had the ros ppa obviously configured on my computer.

If apt availability is a requirement, than this does indeed not make sense.
