There was a problem hiding this comment.
What is this table supposed to express, "required and recommended binary support" or "required and recommend support building from source"?
Is it not a requirement for Bouncy to build from source on Xenial? Or are we softening that?

This is supposed to reflect what combinations of plaforms/architecture OSRF provides binaries for. Maybe the title Binary packages provided: should be highligted to make it clearer.
This is why the platforms where we don't planned to ever provide binaries are marked "N/A"
I should also propagate the Recommended Support: source only to this tables header to make it more explicit.

I'm not sure how to preperly express this, for example, it's already impossible to compile some of our packages on both platforms because of major changes in system dependencies (e.g. cartographer).
Maybe moving Xenial to the "Required support" section with a "source only" label allows to carry that "the ROS2 core should build on this platform"?

Merging this as is as I'm about to merge the corresponding rosdistro/ buildfarm_config PRs. Please feel free to comment here post-merge with any comment and I'll address them in a follow-up |
