When the colcon starts building tf2 the following error pops up. How does one fix this issue and continue build via source?

 /home/nithish/ros2_rolling/install/geometry_msgs/include/geometry_msgs/msg/detail/vector3__traits.hpp:28:5: error: ‘value_to_yaml’ was not declared in this scope
   28 |     value_to_yaml(msg.x, out);
      |     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~

   38 |     value_to_yaml(msg.y, out);
      |     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~

In order to best help, we would need to know what steps you took to reach this result and what instructions you were following. Also of potential use would be the output of vcs export --exact src from your workspace to see which exact versions of ROS packages you are trying to build.

I can't promise this is your specific issue, but I've had that issue before when I tried building in a dirty terminal that had already sourced Foxy binaries. When I nuked that workspace's build/log/install and opened a fresh terminal I got it to work again.

If you have already installed a previous version of ROS (like foxy), that might be the source of the problem. It's because value_to_yaml function is introduced recently, and the compiler may prioritize the older version of ROS, resulting the 'not declared' error. To solve this, I just had to comment out source /opt/ros/foxy/setup.bash from my ~/.bashrc file and restart the terminal. Hope this helps.

Thanks a lot, you save my life. And btw, please make sure delete the previous build cache before colcon build again
