The README claims that this repository contains executables, but I cannot find any executable files. When I attempted to compile the files myself, I received the following error message:

CMake Warning at CMakeLists.txt:8 (find_package):
  By not providing "FindRock.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
  asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "Rock", but
  CMake did not find one.

  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "Rock" with any of
  the following names:

    RockConfig.cmake
    rock-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "Rock" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
  "Rock_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.  If "Rock"
  provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been
  installed.

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:9 (rock_init):
  Unknown CMake command "rock_init".

I'm assuming that Rock refers to the Robot Construction Kit. I really do not want to have to install Rock just so I can use the planner, but since it seems like it is currently impossible to use the planner without Rock, I followed the instructions here https://www.rock-robotics.org/documentation/autoproj/bootstrap.html to try to get it setup. Once I had done that I attempted to used the commands autoproj update --all-known-packages and autoproj build --all-known-packages, but received the error message Unknown switches "--all-known-packages". After looking through the Rock documentation, I determined that I probably need to update my autoproj/manifest file, but I can't tell which packages I need at minimum, and the documentation for installing packages (https://www.rock-robotics.org/documentation/tutorials/190_installing_packages.html#adding-package-sets) is unclear and looks out-of-date when compared with the package index page.

Could you please provide the manifest file and any other instructions necessary to install this package?

Thanks for reporting this issue. Pls have a look at the branch "update_install_instructions" for a standalone installation. Try out the install.sh script, after inspecting it. Make sure you are using python3 to run the planner.
