Hello @costashatz, here is an issue linked to the Joss review openjournals/joss-reviews#6771

I tried the installation script on an Ubuntu Virtual Machine 24.04 with arm64 architecture, and it looks to have a problem in the apt dependencies. I attached the terminal log here: https://gist.github.com/c-joly/3d68d729b40c51aa6b11231771941435 (note: I changed the script to make it stop at the first error)

Note: the install script passed flawlessly on Ubuntu 22.04 arm64

It looks like the apt dependencies are not satisfied on the last version of Ubuntu (at least for arm64 architecture, I can't test for amd64 with my Mac M2). Maybe you should consider to limit the versions of Ubuntu that are fine, >= 20.04 may be too optimistic.

Hey @c-joly! Thanks for testing.

Interesting that the DART developers have pre-built binaries for 22.04 and not for 24.04 (at least for arm64). I will test on 24.04 on an amd64 arch and see what I get. Then I'll update the script or the docs accordingly.

Good to know that Ubuntu 22.04 worked easily (even on arm64)!

Thanks again!

Hi @costashatz!

AFAICT, I the same issue also exists for x86, see below ; that makes sense, the 24.04 release is still rather new. So the title of this issue could be updated.

Small nitpicking : could you modify the install_ubuntu.sh script so that it stop as soon as an error is met?
(see for example Unofficial bash strict mode).

Cheers,

Sébastien

@boisgera good to know! I'll inform the DART developers and update the docs until they are up to date. I know they are being very meticulous for the ROS supported Ubuntu versions. So I guess ROS is not on 24.04 yet..
