Failing to build when using ament `--symlink-install` #72

Closed clalancette closed 6 years ago

clalancette commented 6 years ago

Using the --symlink-install flag to ament allows you to make modifications to things like Python scripts in the source directory without a compile/install cycle. Currently trying to build ecl with:

ament build --isolated --symlink-install

Fails initially with:

+++ Installing 'ecl_eigen'
==> '. /home/ubuntu/ecl_ws/build_isolated/ecl_eigen/cmake__install.sh && /usr/bin/make install' in '/home/ubuntu/ecl_ws/build_isolated/ecl_eigen'

(if I comment that out and continue on, further errors manifest as well)

That looks like a bug in ament...it's running off the install rule in ecl_core/ecl_eigen/licenses:

set(LICENSES COPYING.LESSER)
install(FILES ${LICENSES} DESTINATION share/licenses/eigen)

so looks like ament isn't aware that it's getting picked up from a subdirectory.

Fixed upstream, should be available next version.
