When a virtual package is requested by a rosdep.yaml file, that was not recognized as being installed because it is not found by
dpkg-query
. This patch searches for virtual packages usingapt show
and if it's a virtual package searches for the providing actual packages usingapt-cache
.If
python-apt
(python api package forapt
) is allowed as new dependency, this could be handled more easily -- see the comment in_is_installed_as_virtual_package
.
