ros-lyrical-ros-base

ros-lyrical-ros-base is a free Linux system tool containing the ROS 2 lyrical ros-base variant. It provides the ROS 2 lyrical stack for other snaps that use it. The package is intended to support ROS 2 applications distributed as snaps.

Through the content interface, it shares ROS 2 lyrical libraries, components, and executables with those snaps. This shared content can reduce the size of individual snaps and help developers package ROS 2 lyrical applications. For users, the snap is installed and removed automatically when it is needed.

Manual installation or removal is not recommended because it may cause problems for snaps that depend on it. Developers are advised to use the ros extensions when incorporating this content into their own snaps. Guidance for that process is available in the ROS deployment and supported extensions documentation.

MirrorNest places ros-lyrical-ros-base in its Linux and System Tools categories and links directly to the official release rather than mirroring the package. This distribution method makes MirrorNest a catalog entry point while leaving the release with its official source. Issues relating to the content snap can be reported through its GitHub project, where its source code is available.
