ROS_INFO (and the other logging macros) are working quite ok for me and a lot of other users. I suspect something is not right in your code that calls the macro/function.

If you could show how you use LOG_INFO(..), perhaps we can determine what is going on.

Hi!

I am running this code - https://github.com/telegek/ros101/tre...

My own version of this code also produces the same print out

Perhaps some environment variable of bash?

It is the same behavior in this tutorial video also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYqDn...

Please add a snippet/extract of the exact code to your question.
