Description
If you have a package with both package.xml
and setup.py
- if the package.xml
has invalid syntax, then colcon build
silently falls back to a regular python
build type, without even printing a warning.
I would expect this to actually fail the build, as it's a pretty serious error condition with confusing side effects. Instead it's only logged as a debug.
# COLCON_LOG_LEVEL=debug colcon build --packages-select mypkg
