| #2525 catkin plugin: check stage-snaps for ROS dependencies | snapcraft | merged | Merged to master. Updates the catkin plugin to check stage-snaps for ROS dependencies, preventing redundant fetching by treating them like underlays. Resolves Launchpad bug #1823788. Approved, passed CI, and merged. | |
| #840 Catkin plugin: build with in-snap python. | snapcraft | merged | Merged after approval. Resolves LP #1628990 by configuring the catkin plugin to use in-snap Python for both build and run times. Adds gcc, libc-dev, and make as build dependencies. | |
| #1130 catkin plugin: produce build-ready staging area. | snapcraft | merged | Merged update to the Catkin plugin generating a build-ready staging area by adjusting ROS files post-build, resolving LP #1663385. Approved, passed CI, and modified two files to prevent future parts from referencing the old install directory. | |
| #152 Catkin plugin: Add support for ROS tools. | snapcraft | merged | Merged Catkin plugin updates to properly install ROS packages, include non-source files, and enable ROS tools via an updated wrapper environment. Resolved an xml2-config conflict while planning to remove the redundant roscore plugin. Tests doubled. | |
| #1070 catkin plugin: don't stage compilers. | snapcraft | merged | Merged to master. The catkin plugin now routes compilers to an alternate working area instead of staging them, resolving LP #1658828 and preventing their inclusion in the final snap. Approved, passed CI, and merged. | |
| #232 Catkin plugin: Use in-snap python instead of OS-provided. | snapcraft | merged | Merged a fix for the Catkin plugin failing on Ubuntu Xenial due to removed OS Python 2. Shebangs now use /usr/bin/env python and 10.ros.sh uses path-based Python, resolving review-flagged file conflicts and missing attributes. |
