Conversation
ROS-O is a community-supported ROS 1 distribution that works on Ubuntu 20.04 and newer versions. This change adds support for installing ROS-O alongside ROS 2 distributions. Changes: - Add ROS-O repository configuration and GPG key handling - Support mixed ROS 1 and ROS 2 repository installation - Add ROS-O test cases to CI workflow - Fix SSL certificate handling for ROS-O repository - Ensure correct repository selection based on Ubuntu version - Pin meson version to avoid colcon-meson compatibility issues The implementation allows installing multiple ROS distributions simultaneously, such as 'noetic rolling' on Ubuntu 20.04 or 'one humble' on Ubuntu 22.04. Technical notes: - Meson is constrained to >=0.60.0,<0.64.0 for colcon-meson 0.4.2 compatibility, avoiding IntrospectionInterpreter API breakage Signed-off-by: Iori Yanokura <ab.ioryz@gmail.com>

Like I said in ros-tooling/action-ros-ci#1008 (review), I'm 💯 on board with this if it is maintained by ROS-O users/maintainers. |
Can you explain this? Rolling isn't officially supported on Ubuntu 20.04. |

Packages for this specific repository are build through https://github.com/ubi-agni/ros-builder-action/ and owned by @rhaschke at CITEC Bielefeld. It is pretty much the go-to repository for anyone to "just install ROS-O" these days.

Thanks for the info!
I would just mention this in the README so that people know that ROS-O debs are downloaded from a separate apt repo and not the usual Open Robotics apt repo. @iory can you add that?
