unable to install catkin on noetic, ubuntu 20.04 with kubuntu
Suposing that catkin was automatically installed with noetic, when I used catkin_make
, the command was not found. I tried to install catkin but I received :
The following packages have unset dependencies:
catkin: Depends: python3-catkin-pkg (>= 0.4.14-2)but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
The package python3-catkin-pkg
(0.4.24-100) is really installed.
What can I do?
Pls make sure not to forget to source.
Also check prior answers: https://answers.ros.org/question/3417...
I did not forget to source. I also had used the same repositories as in question 3417.and that was the result.
Have you tried installing python catkin tools?
Yes, I did too, and finally arrived to the impossibility aforementioned.
I have repeated the process from the beginning several times and in different ways and always gat the same final result.
It could be a Kubuntu issue not necessarily ROS. Ubuntu is the recommended OS
What is the output of:
lsb_release -a
dpkg -l | grep catkin
source
ing:which catkin_make
And what does:
mean exactly?
Unless you've setup to auto-
source
(via your.bashrc
fi), you'll have tosource
in every terminal manually. A single time won't work for future terminals.Edit, just noticed:
how? Which command did you use, exactly?
Note that
catkin
is not the same package aspython3-catkin-pkg
.And the latter is not the package which provides the
catkin_make
command. That would beros-noetic-catkin
. Are you perhaps mixing in wiki/UpstreamPackages?Yes, I included source via .bashrc. I used ros-noetic-catkin
The result for dpkg is:
please answer all questions, and be precise.
We cannot help you otherwise.
