Updating Moveit! GUI to include Planning Attempts

edit

Removing packages should not be necessary. If you overlay your catkin workspace properly, the 'originals' (from debs) are ignored.

Could you update your question with the following information:

• which package(s) did you remove precisely (and how)
• how is your workspace setup (which packages did you checkout)
• what steps did you take to build the workspace

Edit:

The instructions on the slides are not entirely correct. Specifically, the branch fix-84 command and similar don't actually checkout the branches, so you just end up building hydro-devel. Obviously this doesn't result in binaries with the extended UI you're after.

You could do this (in a new workspace, or just remove everything from your previous attempt):

mkdir -p ~/your_new_ws/src
cd ~/your_new_ws/src
wstool init .
wstool merge https://gist.githubusercontent.com/gavanderhoorn/1239f5b5ff3fd5915d7b/raw/35d56c311f515aa8fb4bf05e1156da80064eb0c0/moveit_swri.rosinstall
wstool up
cd ..
catkin_make
source devel/setup.bash

If you now launch an RViz instance and add the MoveIt planning plugin, you should see the new UI.

PS: the moveit_swri.rosinstall gist is just for convenience. You could have checked out everything by hand, and then do something like git checkout {fix-82, addFirFilter, FIR_filter}. Now wstool does this for you.

PPS: just removing the ros-hydro-moveit-full package will most likely not do what you want. As it is a top-level package, it will not remove any of its dependencies (among which are the ros-hydro-moveit-core, ..-moveit-ros and ..-moveit-setup-assistant). You'll have to specify each package by name (but removing them should not be necessary, as the ones in your catkin ws will have higher priority).

Edit 2: added wstool up right after wstool merge ...
