Hello, I had to reinstall the ROS packages and dependencies for ROS (ros noetic) on a new virtual machine and run into unforseen issues compared to the previous build (around january 2024). The build is exactly as the instructions says in the bluerov_ros_playground README. Nothing more has been added.

First of all, Mavros_extras had troubles getting built but I did a workaround to solve the compiling problem. The issue was GPS2_RAW finding undefined mav_msgs in in /mavros_extras/src/plugins/gps_status.cpp and the solution was to comment out everything containing GPS2_RAW.

Second of all, I wanted to recall that upon launching the gazebo or the gazebo teleop, the BlueROV2 floats on top of the water. In my case, it plummets.

Is there anyone that has this issue during an install and have solved it? If yes, how did you do it.
