Installing ros-melodic-desktop uninstalls python3-catkin-pkg
See relevant GitHub tracking ticket with more info and steps here.
I am attempting to build a ROS2 package that uses ROS1 bridge (rosbag2_bag_v2) in a GitHub Actions CI pipeline. I am able to install the dependencies for ROS1 which include python3-catkin-pkg
. However, when I run apt-get install ros-melodic-desktop
, it automatically removes python3-catkin-pkg
:
The following packages will be REMOVED:
python3-catkin-pkg python3-rosdep python3-rosdep-modules python3-rosdistro
python3-rospkg
Is there a reason this occurs and is it possible to install a ROS1 distro without removing python3-catkin-pkg
