ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tf2_sensor_msgs'

Is there any plan to include tf2_sensor_msgs?

[clalancette]

Eventually, yes. But it is blocked by ros2/orocos_kinematics_dynamics#19

[Flova]

Same with tf2_geometry_msgs.

Sorry for the basic question, but I find it quite challenging to understand what is ported and what is not from ROS1 to ROS2.
Since I already see the tf2_geometry_msgs in this repo, I thought it was already available.
Also sudo apt-get install ros-foxy-tf2-geometry-msgs says that the package is already the newest version.
What is the easy way of understanding if a package in a repo is already ported or not? Is it the missing setup.py file?

[Flova]

The python part of the tf2_geometry_msgs was excluded by deleting its part from the CMakeLists.txt file, which disables the build of this part of the package. It is not very obvious that this part of the code is not being build. I agree with you. The code is already ported by deactivated due to an upstream dependency issue. This should be resolved by dropping the dependency as proposed in this PR #509.

just use the command:
sudo apt-get install ros-foxy-tf2-sensor-msgs
It worked fine for me

[Flova]

Imo. this issue can be closed as #509 is merged for a while now.

It could not be build due to a missing dependency prior to #509 iirc.. It was therefore no binary was released.

Check your package.xml dependency definitions and run rosdep again if you need to install it explicitly like you did.

Yes, this was long ago enabled, and is currently available in all of our supported distributions. I'm going to close this one out.
