rosinstall_generator desktop_full getting packages I don't have installed
I installed ros the normal way with sudo apt-get install ros-kinetic-desktop-full. Now, I want to get a snapshot of the package versions using rosinstallgenerator desktopfull.
However, for some reason, it's getting a lot of packages that I don't have installed. Why is that? How do I exclude them?

How are you invoking
rosinstall_generator
?Please show exact commands you've used.
And an observation: if you've used
apt
, it may perhaps be better to use any of the availableapt
snapshotting / mirroring tools instead, as that would get you the actual packages that you used to install ROS on your system.Asked by gvdhoorn on 2019-11-20 03:02:55 UTC
here is how I did it:
rosinstall comes up with a bunch of packages that I do not have installed.
