[Bug] Package names clash for arm_kinematics_constraint_aware [closed]

edit

Right, but clash between binary and source distribution of same package is a different story, isn't it?

Maybe I don't understand your problem correctly. What exactly did you install and how? If you installed the arm_navigation stack as a debian package and later download the kinematics stack as source, the package of the stack, which comes first in the ROS_PACKAGE_PATH should automatically be used.

[Offtopic] Are you really in Korea? :-)

I installed everything from sources as I am on Fedora. The arm_kinematics_constraint_aware was installed together with other stuff in arm_navigation stack by roslocate info arm_navigation | rosws merge -.

But roslocate info arm_kinematics_constraint_aware | rosws merge - will pull the code from kinematics stack.

OK, so I played with rosws and roslocate for the first time (cool tools actually!) and set up a test workspace. I didn't get any errors using the commands above. What error/missbehaviour does your clash cause?

Since you added arm_kinematics_constraint_aware from the kinematics stack at last, it becomes your new "default" package. If you want to change that, you could add arm_navigation as second or modify your ROS_PACKAGE_PATH by hand.

Sorry for confusion. I didn't add anything from kinimatics stack, I just noticed that it can be a problem for others if they checkout the package from a 'wrong' stack.
