Build failures on Kinetic build farm

[jacquelinekay]

cl_urdf fails to build binaries on the Kinetic build farm, including for 64-bit Ubuntu on x86. Can a maintainer take a look at the failing build soon? Otherwise I will blacklist the package on the farm until I am notified that the build has been fixed. Many thanks.

I will a have look at it.

I tried reproducing the error through a pre-release test.

What I did:

• roslisp in underlay
• roslisp_common as dependent
• ROS Indigo, Trusty

What broke:

• nothing

Puzzling.

It seems cl_urdf is the only package in roslisp_common that lists other packages in find package(catkin REQUIRED <here>). Maybe that causes the error on the buildfarm. I'll give it a try.

I could also not reproduce the error from the build-farm with roslisp_common in the underlay, and designator_integration in the overlay.

So, I guess the best thing to do is to try out the patched version cl_urdf. I ran a pre-release test for the patched version, and all went fine. But, they also did for the broken one. So, who knows..

It seems that was the necessary fix. Yesterday, I realized that fix for Indigo, and I received several mails seeing that Indigo builds are back to normal. I will now release the same version of roslisp_common for Jade and Kinetic.

Good to hear you found the fix. @tfoote is planning to do a final sync for EOL'd Ubuntu distributions (saucy, utopic, vivid) for Indigo and Jade some time this week, so if you'd like to get the patched version into Jade make sure to do the release soon. Cheers!
