Installation of required ros packages #3

Closed david-s-martinez closed 1 year ago

Some packages like tf2_sensor_msgs can no longer be installed via pip. The solution I found was to install them via apt-get and including the ros distro: sudo apt-get install ros-melodic-tf2-sensor-msgs The same applies for other packages such as ros-melodic-ros-numpy.

I found both packages should be installed via apt-get in https://github.com/qianbot/panda-simulator/edit/agile-modifications/README.md. For tf2_sensor_msgs, it's written also in requirements.txt as pip package in grasp-pipeline repo, which is no longer available so I removed it there.
