the new docker images are defaulting to a hardcoded tag that can be
traced back to source code which is why we are adding the string to the
build and run scripts
I double checked each new dependency and made sure to build each target
with the new install script as well as test FastRTPS and Simulations
* removed unused dependencies
* settled on the absolute most updated JDK we could possibly use given
our dependencies (JDK 14)
* added conditional support for use in a container environment via a new
flag --from-docker
* added multi-platform build tools for development
I don't think the PX4 setup script should decide whether a user is to
use ccache or not. Anecdotally, I've heard from some in the dev team
that they are not using it themselves, so I don't think there is a good
basis to push it onto others.
That being said, we can of course still use ccache as part of the CI
builds nevertheless.
- cmake NuttX build wrapper compile in place instead of copying source tree to build directory
- slightly faster skipping necessary copying (depending on system)
- allows debugging in place
- easier to work directly in NuttX following official documentation
- simplifies overall build which should make it easier to resolve any remaining NuttX dependency issues in the build system
- the downside is switching back and forth between different builds always require rebuilding NuttX, but I think this is worth the improved developer experience
- also no longer builds px4io and bootloader in every single build, for most users these rarely change and we're wasting a lot of build time
- mavlink/mavlink is now directly included as a submodule instead of the generated mavlink/c_library_v2
- this also switches to mavlink development.xml by default
This fixes running the Ubuntu setup script in a Python virtual
environment. This was failing because pip doesn't allow the --user
option in virtual environments.
This should prevent debconf from asking questions during install.
Presumably, the exported env variable DEBIAN_FRONTEND is not taken into
account in a sudo command, hence we need to add it every time.
