 -> error making: ros-noetic-rviz 

Tried Clean Build of all packages with --rebuildtree

• yay -Rns $(yay -Qsq ros-noetic)
• yay -S ros-noetic-desktop-full --rebuildtree

How can I resolve this issue?

[AchmadFathoni]

Downgrade urdfdom 1.0.4

[AchmadFathoni]

And blacklist it from being updated

[RaviRahar]

Can you please guide me how do I do it? Current urdfdom version is 3.0.0-1 which is dependency of ros-noetic-urdf-1.13.2-2 So I removed it sudo pacman -Rns ros-noetic-urdf what do I install now? which version of ros-noetic-urdf? And if I ignore urdf from updating, what to do with ros-noetic-urdf?

[AchmadFathoni]

Ok

1. Install the ros-noetic-urdf back by yay -S ros-noetic-urdf
2. cd ~/.cache/yay/urdfdom
3. git checkout master~
4. makepkg -fi

[AchmadFathoni]

Then put IgnorePkg = urdfdom in your /etc/pacman.conf You should be able to install ROS again

[RaviRahar]

Still getting the same error. Installed correct version of urdfdom.

[AchmadFathoni]

Rebuild the ros-noetic-urdf cd ~/.cache/yay/ros-noetic-urdf makepkg -fi Rebuild the ros-noetic-rviz with sameway as above. Then report your results.

[AchmadFathoni]

Is it working?

[RaviRahar]

It probably is. My laptop is old, so the build stuck at 648/1100+ (it stuck twice before at 500 something and was taking multiple hrs. per build). And our prof. made it necessary to install ubuntu. But after installing the packages you mentioned, I think it probably would have installed. I will close the issue, will test back in couple of months with another laptop.
