How can a ROS Noetic Master launch nodes on Melodic or Kinetic ? I have a workstation running Ubuntu 20.04 with ROS Noetic. I want to use it to launch robots on the Raspberry Pi 3 and 4. These are currently running Kinetic and Melodic respectfully.

The problem is that roslaunch in Noetic adds sigint-timeout and sigterm-timeout options to the command. These are recent additions, and not understood by Kinetic or Melodic. It seems that they killed interoperability !
