The CI error (from https://build.ros2.org/job/Rpr__geometry2__ubuntu_noble_amd64/2/console) is:

that seems unrelated to the PR content.

As a kind of OT comment, as soon as we can require CMake 3.14, all the DESTINATION boilerplate in install(TARGETS <...>) commands can be removed, as the default values match what we always set: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/release/3.14.html#commands and https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.14/command/install.html#targets .

For Rolling, at least, we now require CMake 3.20 due to some (unrelated) changes. So we can do this if you want.

That said, it is a different effort, so I'm still going to merge this one as-is.

Sure, I just realized this while writing this PR, so I wanted to write it down somehow. Just bumping the cmake_minimum_required version can have unintended consequences, so for sure it is better to open a PR just for that.
