cv_bridge_boost error on ROS example policy #119
Description
System information
- OS Platform and Distribution : Ubuntu 16.04
- Python version: 3.5.2
- Installed using pip or ROS: ROS Kinetic
- GPU model (if applicable): no GPU
Describe the result you are trying to replicate
I'm trying to use the example ROS policy
Provide the exact sequence of commands / steps that you executed to replicate this result
From Ubuntu Xenial fresh install, installed ROS Kinetic
Then made a Python 3.5.2 virtualenv, cloned and installed GQCNN and autolab_core packages
Installed alll dependancies and built with catkin_make
In order to be able to import cv2 I had to add the following in /my/virtualenv/path/lib/python3.5/site-packages/perception/image.py :
import sys
sys.path.remove('opt/ros/kinetic/lib/python2.7/dist-pkg')
import cv2
sys.path.append('opt/ros/kinetic/lib/python2.7/dist-pkg')
instead of import cv2 only
Maybe it is related
Describe the unexpected behavior
The ROS graspins policy works but the python example doesn't, I get the following error
ImportError: dynamic module does not define module export function (PyInit_cv_bridge_boost)
[INFO] [1590483364.054702]: signal_shutdown [atexit]

Other info / logs
Here's the traceback
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/opt/ros/kinetic/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/cv_bridge/core.py", line 91, in encoding_to_cvtype2
from cv_bridge.boost.cv_bridge_boost import getCvType
I guess the problem comes from Python 3.5.
I tried using GQCNN with Python 2.7 but I always get a cannot import name ABC error.
I tried building the ROS package with
catkin_make -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/python3 -DPYTHON_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/include/python3.5m -DPYTHON_LIBRARY=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.5m.so
(from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49221565/unable-to-use-cv-bridge-with-ros-kinetic-and-python3)
but this doesn't solve the issue
I also tried adding the "vision_opencv" ROS package in my workspace but I'd doesn't work either.
Thank you for your answers and your work on this project.
