colcon build "1 package failed: glim_ros"

[alejandro-alonso-isi]

I have the same problem from of issue and I checked a version of GTSAM how you sugere but is in tag 4.2a9

I encountered the same issue "A build error when using colcon build in ROS2 #67" as described in a previous issue. I verified that the GTSAM tag is set to the version tag 4.2a9, but the problem persists. I have attached screenshots of the error for reference.

Environment (please complete the following information):

• CPU/GPU: 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-13700/NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060
• OS: Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS
• ROS: Ros humble
• CUDA: 12.2
• Build with CUDA: OFF

Can you check and try the following?

• CMake options for GTSAM were set as following the installation instruction
• GTSAM and gtsam_points were placed outside ros2_ws and built and installed to the system
• Check if demo programs in gtsam_points work
• Run sudo ldconfig after installing GTSAM and gtsam_points

I have the same problem. I've tried calling make for gtsam_points with build demos option, but all of them failed with a lot of undefined references. But if I call make without this option - gtsam_points builds just fine. Oh, and gtsam_points also fails when I'm trying to build examples.

[UriyMihailov]

Is it possible it has something to do with the CUDA option?

Now when I try to install gtsam_points, I get the following error mentioning an incompatibility with the Eigen version. I followed the step-by-step instructions as provided in the README

[koide3]

These errors are typically caused by installing a wrong version of GTSAM. Please check the installed GTSAM version with:

ls /usr/local/lib/libgtsam*
# /usr/local/lib/libgtsam_points_cuda.so  /usr/local/lib/libgtsam.so    /usr/local/lib/libgtsam.so.4.2.0     /usr/local/lib/libgtsam_unstable.so.4
# /usr/local/lib/libgtsam_points.so       /usr/local/lib/libgtsam.so.4  /usr/local/lib/libgtsam_unstable.so  /usr/local/lib/libgtsam_unstable.so.4.2.0

If there exist libgtsam.so.4.3a0 or something similar, remove them and re-install GTSAM 4.2a9.

@UriyMihailov @alejandro-alonso-isi Hi guys! Have you resolved this issue? I'm experiencing the same problem. GTSAM 4.2a9.

For anyone still struggling, for me, the issue comes from ROS having its own GTSAM, so when you source ROS before colcon build, the wrong GTSAM version is used. I simply did sudo apt remove ros-jazzy-gtsam and it built no problem.
