Missing sys/acl.h when trying to install Humble

[DrBwts]

Bug report

• Operating System: Windows 10 running WSL2 - Ubuntu
• Installation type: From source following the instructions from here
• Version or commit hash: ROS2 Humble
• DDS implementation: unknown - how do I find out?
• Client library (if applicable): problem with iceoryx_hoofs in ament_pycodestyle

I followed the instruction to install from source for Ubuntu. All is well until I run,

colcon build --symlink-install

Which Installs the 1st few packages with some warnings then throws a "fatal error"

Starting >>> ament_pycodestyle
--- stderr: iceoryx_hoofs

Did you run the step where you run:

rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src -y --skip-keys "fastcdr rti-connext-dds-6.0.1 urdfdom_headers"

?

That should have installed libacl1-dev, which is where that header comes from.

[clalancette]

No response in 2 weeks, closing this.

[orascheg]

Have the same problem. It still happens. Command in the first response does not work out of the box, because ROS_DISTRO not yet set. After adding the --rosdistro option the same error happens (rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src -y --skip-keys --rosdistro humble "fastcdr rti-connext-dds-6.0.1 urdfdom_headers") I have a my_ros2.repos file, which I unfortunately cannot attach here.

[avgsurfman]

Same problem when trying to install ROS2 on Raspberry Pi via Cross-compilation. Happens on both Ubuntu and Debian. The compilation terminates on Error 1 and 2 respectively and I cannot proceed any further.

[Wildhair2]

That should have installed libacl1-dev, which is where that header comes from.

You are correct. It is far easier to install it directly (on Debian based distros) with: sudo apt install libacl1-dev -y

This fixes the missing sys/acl.h that numerous programs fail on compilation (such as "pip3 install borgbackup")
