Gazebo doesn't support DART5

osrf-migration commented 8 years ago

Original report (archived issue) by Nicolae Rosia (Bitbucket: nicolaerosia).

Hello,

[0] states that DART 5 should be used, but looking at the SearchForStuff.cmake it seems like DART4 is needed.

#!cmake

  # Find DART
  find_package(DARTCore 4.3.3 QUIET)
  if (DARTCore_FOUND)
    message (STATUS "Looking for DARTCore - found")
    set (HAVE_DART TRUE)
  else()
    message (STATUS "Looking for DARTCore - not found")
    BUILD_WARNING ("DART not found, for dart physics engine option, please install libdart-core4-dev.")
    set (HAVE_DART FALSE)
  endif()

To add on, it looks like gazebo 7 uses DART 4, while gazebo 8 uses dart 5. The tutorial needs to be fixed for version 7 and earlier.

Also dart4 is not available via an apt repo on xenial. It is available on trusty though.
