Install on ros noetic

[HerveFrezza-Buet]

Dear authors,
The ros noetic package is not provided yet in the distribution, so I installed it from the current git.
I cloned the git in my rosworkspace/src directory, and "catkin build".
I got the following and I am stuck.
Many thnks for any help.

Best regards
Hervé

I am also having this issue

[Tanguyvans]

I am also having the same issue did anyone found a solution ?

[lmark1]

Hey,

I found the solution to this issue. You need to change line 12 of file scripts/get_arch.py to the following:

arch = subprocess.check_output(["gcc", "-dumpmachine"]).decode("utf-8").strip().split("-")[0]

Changes can be found on branch noetic-devel in the following fork : larics/parrot_arsdk

@lmark1 I tried your solution and I am still getting the same error as @HerveFrezza-Buet .

[HerveFrezza-Buet]

Here is the routine I use.

cd my-ros-workspace/src
git clone https://github.com/AutonomyLab/parrot_arsdk.git
cd parrot_arsdk

Then, as the HowTo.md says

I check the version at https://github.com/Parrot-Developers/arsdk_manifests/releases (e.g. 3_14_0)
I edit script/download_and_strip_arsdk.sh, but it was already ok for me.
I run
./script/download_and_strip_arsdk.sh
I get errors but I have an archive generated. I move it in sdk/
I update CMakeList.txt... but it was already ok for me.

Then I try to compile

cd my-ros-workspace/
catkin build

It complains about checksums, suggesting an 'actual' one. This is the one I write in my-ros-workspace/src/parrot_arsdk/CMakeLists.txt as
set(ARSDK_ARCHIVE_MD5 ) // line 21 when I tried

I modified the line 12 of scripts/get_arch.py as previously suggested (thanks)

arch = subprocess.check_output(["gcc", "-dumpmachine"]).decode("utf-8").strip().split("-")[0]

Then,

catkin build
works (with warnings)

Next, I need to tell the compilers where the library is. I did it by updating my .bashrc with this line

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:my-ros-workspace/devel/lib/parrot_arsdk

Now, I can compile bebop autonomy, but syntax errors need to be fixed first

cd my-ros-workspace/src
git clone https://github.com/AutonomyLab/bebop_autonomy.git

You will have compiling errors : modify my-ros-workspace/src/bebop_autonomy/bebop_driver/src/bebop_video_decoder.cpp for fiixing bad macro names. Some macro are like CODEC_... instead of AV_CODEC_..., the errors are near line 96

Then compiling succeeds

sudo rosdep init
rosdep update
rosdep install --from-paths src -i
catkin clean
catkin build

This sounds a bit like a receipe, but it worked for me. I hope it will help.

Hey
This did not work for me, my system crashes on running catkin build

I update CMakeList.txt... but it was already ok for me.

What changes need to be made?

It complains about checksums, suggesting an 'actual' one. This is the one I write in my-ros-workspace/src/parrot_arsdk/CMakeLists.txt as
set(ARSDK_ARCHIVE_MD5 ) // line 21 when I tried

Which checksum is to be set?

I modified the line 12 of scripts/get_arch.py as previously suggested (thanks)
arch = subprocess.check_output(["gcc", "-dumpmachine"]).decode("utf-8").strip().split("-")[0]
Then,
catkin build
works (with warnings)

At this stage on my machine catkin build fails

Please let me know if you faced this and how you proceeded
