Problem when building the superbuild at commit babf8b5

[fedeceola]

Today I built the robotology-superbuild at commit babf8b5 with the option cmake .. -D ROBOTOLOGY_USES_PYTHON=ON -D ROBOTOLOGY_USES_GAZEBO=OFF -D ROBOTOLOGY_ENABLE_DYNAMICS=ON. From python it's impossible to import icub (and indeed icub.py is not available in robotology-superbuild/build/install/lib/python3/dist-packages). With the last distro v2023.08.0 there are no problems.

For reference, the reference commit is babf8b5 . I guess this is related to the changes in #1508 and #1511 .

To debug the problem, can you report the content of following files:

• robotology-superbuild/build/install/share/robotology-superbuild/setup.sh
• robotology-superbuild/build/src/YARP/install_manifest.txt
• robotology-superbuild/build/src/ICUB/CMakeCache.txt
• robotology-superbuild/build/src/ICUB/install_manifest.txt

Thanks!

Actually, looking at the CI log is already clear the problem, for some reason the python files are installed in the build directory instead of the install prefix:

while for yarp:

So the problem may be related to the code in robotology/icub-main#820 .

@fedeceola can you check if #1526 solves the issue? Thanks!

[fedeceola]

Hi @traversaro, I just checked. The issue is solved. Thanks!

[traversaro]

Great, thanks!
