When I run the knowrob and compile the knowrob_addons, it cannot find the dependency

knowrob_mesh_reasoning

. I tried to find it, but I found that the package know_mesh_reasoning on github knowrob repository is removed. How can I deal with this.

knowrob_mesh_reasoning has been moved into a private repository, but you should not need it for any package you want to use. The only packages depending on it are in such an early development phase that external users are not advised to use them.

Then the dependency and/or package should be removed, I'd say. I just ran into the same issue. :-(

Why? That's a repository of different add-on packages, and rosmake shall work on all packages that other people are supposed to use. What's your use case that you need to run rosmake on the full knowrob_addons repository?

It comes with the provided rosinstaller. In my case one package was somehow not being build when doing ```rosmake roboearth```. So I did ```rosmake --all```. I guess, if everything works as planned, nobody will ever find out that there is "intentionally broken" code hiding in that stack.

I would say a cleaner way would be to move that piece of code out into a separate stack. While it was quite convenient to hide unused/broken code in a stack with rosbuild - we did the same - it gets annoying with catkin, since one usually compiles the whole workspace - at least I do.

Well, it's neither unused nor broken, just not intended for public use. That's why it's not part of the knowrob stack itself, but in a separate repository. But I get your point and will see if I can move the packages such that everything that's public also builds.
