Hello everyone, I am trying to build ROS2 from source following the galactic link. While building, I am getting the below error,

Starting >>> shape_msgs
--- stderr: libstatistics_collector
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:100 (rosidl_get_typesupport_target):
  Unknown CMake command "rosidl_get_typesupport_target".


make: *** [Makefile:1130: cmake_check_build_system] Error 1
---
Failed   <<< libstatistics_collector [5.11s, exited with code 2]
Aborted  <<< shape_msgs [1.76s]
Aborted  <<< rclpy [2.80s]
Aborted  <<< map_msgs [4.19s]

Summary: 176 packages finished [1min 34s]
  1 package failed: libstatistics_collector
  3 packages aborted: map_msgs rclpy shape_msgs
  1 package had stderr output: libstatistics_collector
  150 packages not processed

I tried to comment it in "src/ros-tooling/libstatistics_collector/CMakeLists.txt" file, but it leads to some other failure. Need some help here.

Thanks in advance.

This is probably the same cause as is fixed by ros2/ros2#1166.

Try changing the active branch for ros-tooling/libstatistics_collector to galactic.

It's set to master here, but that isn't correct any more since ros-tooling/libstatistics_collector#116.

yes, don't do that.

That function call is there for a reason.

Thank you! I had similar build error; used ROS2 Foxy, but ROS2 tutorial's branch was rolling, when corrected the branch as suggested (foxy-devel in my case) this "rosidl_get_typesupport_target" build error disappeared.
