Controller-related dependencies missing in package.xml #638

Closed AndyZe closed 1 year ago

AndyZe commented 1 year ago

If you are trying to launch in Gazebo but the controllers do not start, this is probably why:

sudo apt install ros-noetic-gazebo-ros-contro* ros-noetic-effort-controllers ros-noetic-position-controllers

Which package.xml are you referring to? The one from ur_gazebo does contain the mentioned dependencies:

https://github.com/ros-industrial/universal_robot/blob/6507bb6756d0065d49b76230ff55f875f099a827/ur_gazebo/package.xml#L24-L29

Assuming this has been 'resolved', I'm closing this.

PS: @fmauch: I just noticed that ur_gazebo apparently depends on meta-packages (effort_controllers & position_controllers), which is an anti-pattern.
