Plan to add dynamic_reconfigure plugin to Docker image:

  • Explore repository structure and understand the Docker setup
  • Identify that this is a ROS2 Humble environment
  • Understand that in ROS2, dynamic_reconfigure is replaced by rqt_reconfigure
  • Add ros-humble-rqt-reconfigure package to the Dockerfile
  • Verify the Dockerfile syntax is valid
  • Optimize Docker layers by combining package installation
  • Fix Docker build failure caused by premature apt cleanup
  • Add apt-get update before package installation to refresh package index
  • Task completed successfully

Summary:
Added the rqt_reconfigure plugin (ROS2 equivalent of dynamic_reconfigure) to the Docker image by installing ros-humble-rqt-reconfigure package. Fixed build failures by adding apt-get update at the beginning of the RUN command to ensure the apt package index is fresh before installing packages.

Original prompt

I need to add the dynamic_reconfigure plugin to the docker image of this repository

Fixed in e48c9ee. The build failed because the apt package index was cleaned up before installing rqt-reconfigure. Removed the premature cleanup step so the package index remains available during installation.

@copilot the CI task still doesn't work. Try to add an apt-update on the same line you modified (probably line 26) before all the other commands

Fixed in 5fcc3cd. Added apt-get update at the start of line 26 to refresh the package index before installing rqt-reconfigure.
