Ubuntu 22 compile issue with QVTKWidget
As title states, I'm attempting to compile Noether on Ubuntu 22.04 for use with ROS Humble. I'm building from my own fork which is based on @marrts latest humble-devel branch. I don't think my issue is related to the changes from these branches.
Following #189, I resolved most of my issues such as the libxmlrpcpp dependency via:
sudo apt-get install libxmlrpcpp-dev
Current Issue
When building, I'm missing a dependency to <QVTKWidget.h>. I have version's Qt 5.15.3 and VTK 9.1 installed.
I think this is a simple missing dependency, but haven't been able to find it. Any suggestions? Thanks!!
I have no experience with VTK, but a quick search shows QVTKWidget was depreciated for VTK 8.1 and a new class, QVTKOpenGLWidget was created. Looking at the class reference, it might just be a name change? Ref nightly build docs here.
From what I can tell so far that may be the case?
By reverting some of the changes @marrts made to their humble devel branch I was able to compile Noether on Ubuntu 20.04 with ROS Foxy (Pushed on my fork)!
However, the changes I needed to make further lead me to believe there may be a versioning issue with the switch from VTK 7.1 to 9.1. Unfortunately though, when I tried to implement fixes I ran into even more deprecation and versioning issues.
Was wondering if anyone else had any experience with/insight on this! Thank you again!
Could you please try to rebase your changes onto @marrts humble-devel branch? It builds for me in humble, and has the fixes for the noether_filtering build errors.

<QVTKWidget.h>
I am running into this same issue when rebasing on the latest changes of noether. It should be fixed now in my latest humble-devel branch,
