I am trying to build ROS2 Dashing from source on a Raspberry Pi with Raspbian Stretch. I followed this tutorial and everything went well until qt_gui_cpp failed because of an internal compiler error. The tutorial mentioned the following:

Note: if you are having trouble compiling all examples and this is preventing you from completing a successful build, you can use COLCON_IGNORE in the same manner as CATKIN_IGNORE to ignore the subtree or remove the folder from the workspace. Take for instance: you would like to avoid installing the large OpenCV library. Well then simply $ touch COLCON_IGNORE in the cam2image demo directory to leave it out of the build process.

For my use case i only need the ROS2 Base installation without any gui tools. I am unsure which of the directorys are needed for a base installation of ROS2. I would be very grateful if someone could help me out here.

When I ls in the src directory i get the following output:

ament  eclipse-cyclonedds  eProsima  osrf  ros  ros2  ros-perception  ros-planning  ros-visualization

Edit: I installed ROS2 Dashing from source. Great thanks to @ruffsl and @marguedas. For anyone that might to do this as well down below is everything i did. It is very similar to the tutorial but i am only installing the ros_core packages with the help of the rosinstall_generator. I also excluded the sros2 packages because i could not build them.

Edit: I have written a simple IPC.srv custom service. Everything worked fine on my Ubuntu 18.04 VM that also has ROS2 Dashing installed with Debian Packages.

When i am compiling the package that contains the IPC.srv i get some strange std_err output like:

/usr/bin/ld: /home/TKI/ros2_dashing/install/rcl_yaml_param_parser/lib/librcl_yaml_param_parser.so: invalid string offset 1759 >= 1389 for section `.strtab'

I also noticed this output ... (more)
