I am following the tutorial for installing Moveit2 under ROS2 Galactic. Everything seems to have worked down to the Build your Colcon Workspace section where I am trying to do the colcon build with the command colcon build --mixin release The error I get is

usage: colcon [-h] [--log-base LOG_BASE] [--log-level LOG_LEVEL]
              {build,extension-points,extensions,graph,info,list,metadata,mixin,test,test-result,version-check}
              ...
colcon: error: Mixin 'release' is not available for 'build'

The file "release" is not to be found. How do I get this missing file?

Is there some way to get this installed correctly?

I am not using a virtual machine.

The previous answer said uninstall argcomplete. Where do I find it and how do I uninstall it?

Found the uninstall command.

sudo apt-get remove python3-argcomplete

ran it. looked like it uninstalled a lot of ros/galactic also.

reran the colcon install using colcon mixin add default https://raw.githubusercontent.com/col...

didn't work. same error

You probably missed this step from https://moveit.picknik.ai/humble/doc/...:

Install Colcon the ROS 2 build system with mixin:

colcon mixin add default https://raw.githubusercontent.com/colcon/colcon-mixin-repository/master/index.yaml
colcon mixin update default
