genmsg
contains only the abstract message generation functionality.
message_generation
depends on genmsg
and the specific generators for languages ROS supports out-of-the-box: gencpp
, genlisp
and genpy
. It is similiar to the former langs
/ langs-dev
packages.
As a message package you always want to depend on message_generation
.
