No joy package in noetic?

asked 2020-07-10 11:36:40 -0500

I cannot find or install the ros-noetic-joypackage. I am on Ubuntu 20.04 and installed ROS Noetic according to the instructions here: http://wiki.ros.org/noetic/Installati...

When I search for it, I get the following:

$ apt search ros-noetic-joy
Sorting... Done
Full Text Search... Done
ros-noetic-joy-teleop/focal,now 0.4.0-1focal.20200608.160320 amd64 [installed]
  A (to be) generic joystick interface to control a robot

ros-noetic-joystick-interrupt/focal 0.8.8-1focal.20200616.142941 amd64
  Interrupt cmd_vel by joystick input

ros-noetic-joystick-interrupt-dbgsym/focal 0.8.8-1focal.20200616.142941 amd64
  debug symbols for ros-noetic-joystick-interrupt

Is the joy package available in noetic?

Its been released https://github.com/ros/rosdistro/blob... and the builds successful http://build.ros.org/job/Nbin_uF64__j.... The last sync was a couple days before https://discourse.ros.org/t/new-packa... so its available just not released to apt yet. You can access it with shadow fixed or build from source.

A new sync should happen within a couple weeks, after which it will be available via the main apt repo

Hello, Noob here. The joy package for Noetic, ros-noetic-joy still looks like is not available. Are there any alternatives for teleoperation? I wanted to use a ps3 controller I already have, but if not possible, what else could I use?

I have a ROS Noetic and I want to install the following packages from [1] on my Ubuntu machine. However, when I select 'Noetic' from the link below, the packages still appear saying 'kinetic'... Are these packages available/released for noetic? Does simply replacing 'kinetic' with 'noetic' work?

Thanks.
