Bug Report: ros-humble-isaac-ros-nvblox APT Package Yields Broken Package Error

[jayanth100798]

When attempting to install the ros-humble-isaac-ros-nvblox package using the following commands:

sudo apt update &&
sudo apt-get install -y ros-humble-isaac-ros-nvblox && \
rosdep update && \
rosdep install isaac_ros_nvblox
the installation fails due to broken packages and unmet dependencies. 

Observed Behavior:

APT reports that some required packages (including ros-humble-nvblox-examples-bringup and ros-humble-nvblox-ros) are not installable.

The process terminates with an error stating: "Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages."

This blocks installation for users who require isaac_ros_nvblox from the official repositories.

Impact:

Users are unable to install ros-humble-isaac-ros-nvblox and any package that depends on nvBlox via the recommended APT method.

Downstream packages such as isaac-manipulator-bringup are also impacted, compounding the problem.

Steps to Reproduce:

Run:

sudo apt update
sudo apt-get install -y ros-humble-isaac-ros-nvblox

Observe dependency/broken package errors in the APT output.

Expected:

The package should be installable from the APT repository with all dependencies resolvable.

Actual:

The package cannot be installed due to unresolvable dependencies and/or broken packages as shown in the terminal output
