Create a new message ROS2 Dashing

I am not able to create a ROS2 Dashing new message, in spite of the fact that I have followed properly this small tutorial https://index.ros.org/doc/ros2/Tutorials/Rosidl-Tutorial/. It seems to be prepared for older distributions such as ROS2 Crystal, but in this case I always find an error related with rosidl_cmake and member of group tag when trying to compile the workspace.

Could you help me?

It does say at the top of the tutorial that it is incomplete:

it is likely outdated and should not be expected to compile as is

Also, the tutorials repository is not being actively updated. Refer to the examples and demos packages instead:

For an example of building a new message, you can check out the example_interfaces package: https://github.com/ros2/example_interfaces

Or look at the action tutorial: https://index.ros.org/doc/ros2/Tutorials/Actions/
