I have a Turtlebot3 WIth ROS Kinetic and Linux 16.04

Everything was working fine until i had trouble installing a python bluetooth library. when the library finally worked it broke ROS. (Atleast i think that broke it) When i try to run the command roslaunch turtlebot3_gazebo turtlebot3_empty_world.launch or roscore i now get the error

/opt/ros/kinetic/lib/rosout/rosout: error while loading shared libraries: libroscpp.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
process[rosout-1]: started with pid [5196]
[rosout-1] process has died [pid 5196, exit code 127, cmd /opt/ros/kinetic/lib/rosout/rosout __name:=rosout __log:=/home/pieter/.ros/log/7ffad4de-6459-11ea-bb82-4074e0a32f05/rosout-1.log].
log file: /home/pieter/.ros/log/7ffad4de-6459-11ea-bb82-4074e0a32f05/rosout-1*.log

In this forum i read it´s probably because the LD_LIBRARY_PATH changed or that some link is wrong. When i echo it returns /home/pieter/catkin_ws/devel/lib:/opt/ros/kinetic/lib:/opt/ros/kinetic/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu what seems right.

when run rospack find roscpp it return /opt/ros/kinetic/share/roscpp and when i run rospack find libroscpp i can´t find the package. /opt/ros/kinetic/lib contains libroscpp.so

ldd /opt/kinetic/lib/rosout/rosout returns:

This fixed my problem, see https://answers.ros.org/question/3663...

quoting the solution from the above link : "Indeed, thank you so much for this! A setcap on my Python executable was the reason for rosout terminating immediately due to not finding libroscpp.so (although properly installed, Ubuntu 20.04, ROS1 noetic). Was able to fix it with sudo setcap -r /usr/bin/python3.8"

add this line to your bashrc file: it should be added last,otherwise it doesn't work

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/ros/kinetic/lib

If this answer that suggests adding LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the lib folder under ROS' install directory, then you should run source /opt/ros/%YOUR_ROS_DISTRO%/setup.bash (in your example, %YOUR_ROS_DISTRO%=kinetic) and see if it resolves.

setup.bash sets up number of things on your terminal for ROS, including setting up an environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH. See http://wiki.ros.org/ROS/Tutorials/Ins...
