Installing the package through the apt-get install ros-foxy-rviz-visual-tools was not succesful, since it isn't able to find the package. Even after doing that, I tried to build the package from source, but again, some dependency problems appear.

I was trying to install it just to be able to use moveit2, so maybe there is an alternative way?

It's weird, because I could install the Galaxy version just fine right now (sudo apt-get install ros-galactic-rviz-visual-tools). Do you have universe enabled in your Software & Updates? What dependency problem do you have with building it from source?

I redid the tutorial and this time it worked. The problems appeared with the sdrdfom package, that had some problems when building it.
