Hi, Sebastian and I found an error and we are unsure at which point we should solve it.
Typelib can set its plugin path by an environment variable. Since the 16. December the variable is set by the cmake_package definition in orocos.packages (using the install path for the package). Now when using the debian package installation we are testing at DFKI, this folder does not exist. The install path is the same, but the insallation is overriden by an installation using apt-get to /opt/rock[...], so the TYPELIB_PLUGIN_PATH is not correct anymore and the install/lib/typelib folder does not exist. Sadly boost::filesystem throws an exception which is not catched when the folder does not exist and orogen fails to generate. So just adding the /opt path to the variable does not help, orogen still stops on the exception. There are several options to fix the issue: 1. Set the TYPELIB_PLUGIN_PATH properly with only existing folders * aka: make the overriding mechanism for deb packages better to the cmake_package code is not evaluated 2. Make TYPELIB_PLUGIN_PATH tolerant against missing folders and just add the path to the .dep plugins (allow wrong paths in env) 3. Create the folder and add the path of the .deb package (currently easiest workaround) IMO No.1 ist the best solution. What do you think?
