Hi, I read the smach tutorial and there is no problem until I run smach_viewer command. Smach tutorial rosrun smach_viewer smach_viewer.py

The terminal shows the below error : [rospack] Error: package 'smach_viewer' not found

I checked the _/opt/ros/noetic/share_ path there is no smach_viewer package. just smach. the question is: What should I do to see the graphical representation of my smach code?

I'm using ubuntu focal, Noetic ROS, and python3. thanks a lot for your support.

It seems Smach lib is based on Python2 and ROS noetic is not supported by python2. So the lib of the Smach should change to Python3.

Not sure if this has changed recently, but i have installed python 3.8, am using ROS noetic and can start smach_viewer after having installed it with sudo apt-get install ros-noetic-smach-viewer. (I was facing another problem though that smach_viewer did not run within a conda environment. (base) conda deactivate solved this.)
