Ubuntu 18.04 running Dashing on hash bafddbdb of master

The example from the Colcon Tutorial does not build.

https://index.ros.org/doc/ros2/Tutori...

I kept getting errors like this from colcon :

Could not find a package configuration file provided by "example_interfaces" with any of the following names:

example_interfacesConfig.cmake
example_interfaces-config.cmake_

I grepped through the commit logs of this repo and 64128033 seemed like the cause - so I cloned https://github.com/ros2/example_inter... into my src directory such that my filesystem was like this

---- src

-------- examples

-------- example_interfaces

and Cmake stopped complaining about an unknown dependency.

After that I got a build error on master, went to the dashing branch and got farther, but I kept getting more colcon errors, and after cloning the following three repos into my src directory colcon built for me

https://github.com/ros2/rclcpp https://github.com/ros2/rcl_interfaces https://github.com/ros2/test_interfac...

my final directory structure looked like this: .

---- src

-------- examples

-------- example_interfaces

-------- rcl_interfaces

-------- test_interface_files

Did I miss a step in my install or is that tutorial lacking these steps?

Thanks

I see that a yaml and xml front-end was added to ros2. In the feature request I see that there was intent to add support for these to the ros2launch cli, but I am struggling to create a .launch.xml file and launch it with ros2launch

Are there any full examples of creating an xml launch file and then using the launch cli tool to run it? The design document and the test here show me the syntax, but I'm still unsuccessful.

this never randomly happens for me but will always happen for me when my /navigate_to_pose action server dies and my cli

okay I should have tried harder to find the new foxy param file syntax because it is what i needed: gazebo -s libgazebo

how to set gazebo /clock publish rate foxy I followed the instructions here to launch my gazebo, and something like this

I've been using the dwb Controller in the ros2 nav stack for a while now with success. Today, I wanted to try out the teb local planner.

Building and loading the plugin were a breeze, but for some reason, whenever I set a goal, I get this transform error:

[controller_server-10] [ERROR] [1595453488.697856494] [controller_server]: Extrapolation Error: Lookup would require extrapolation into the future.  Requested time 1595453488.692529 but the latest data is at time 1595453488.682535, when looking up transform from frame [odom] to frame [map]

Then my robot enters a recovery state, until it hits this error again.

If I switch back to using DWB, the error is gone!.

I'm using cyclonedds as my rmw implementation on ros2 foxy

The problem is that you are inputting absolute orientation from your imu into your Kalman filter. The imu being used eit

sure I can do that :)

What about the orientation values themselves, not the velocities? You are also adding those absolute measurements from t
