Hi everyone, I am trying to execute rqt_publisher rqt_publisher command, however, it is not working. Detail: It is the only app (functionality) from rqt which is not working. I could not fix this issue alone. I tried to uninstall python libraries, reinstall ros-kinetic-desktop full, update and upgrade, but it still keeping the same error... I am using ROS-kinetic in ubuntu 16.04. The error is below:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/ros/kinetic/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/rqt_publisher/publisher_widget.py", line 105, in _update_thread_run

This is unrelated to Autoware so please remove that tag.

Please see the answer below why the current problem is in the autoware package.

The problem is in the last file of the stacktrace (_LaneChangeRelation.py:33) which contains the following line:

None = 0

Since None can't be assigned to in Python this code fails with a SyntaxError.

The reason is that the message definition uses Noneas the name of a constant which doesn't work in Python: https://gitlab.com/autowarefoundation...

Since there is no automatic mangling to avoid the collision with language specific keywords I would suggest to file a ticket in the repo defining the message.

Thanks @Dirk Thomas I did not know where to find the file you talked above in order to change the code... what I have done was removing all files which were installed regarding AUTOWARE. I did not remember that I have installed some plugins from Autoware...because my idea is working with it in the future, not now...but then...if I reinstall Autoware, am I going to have this issue again?

Yes, until it gets fixed. Therefore I recommended to create an issue about this in that repo. Otherwise it is unlikely to be addressed.
