ros-lyrical-ros-core

ros-lyrical-ros-core is a free Linux package in the System Tools category. It contains the ROS 2 lyrical ros-core variant. Its purpose is to provide the ROS 2 lyrical stack to other snaps that use it.

The snap shares ROS 2 lyrical libraries, components, and executables through the content interface. Sharing these resources can reduce the size of snaps that depend on the stack. It also helps developers package ROS 2 lyrical applications as snaps using a common source of the required software.

For users, ros-lyrical-ros-core is installed automatically when a snap needs it and removed when it is no longer needed. Manually adding or removing it is not recommended because doing so might break snaps that rely on it. Users experiencing problems with snaps that use ROS can seek assistance from experts on the Snapcraft forum.

For developers, the ros extensions are the recommended way to use this content snap in their own snap. The related documentation describes how to add ROS support, while the source code and issue tracker are available through GitHub. MirrorNest runs on Linux and links directly to the official release instead of mirroring the package, placing it in the catalog as a distribution entry for this System Tools component.
