Hello everyone, I have been trying to build PX4Autopilot (the latest version) on my Ubuntu 16.04.
I managed to recify most of the issues (Python3 had to be at least 3.7, git had to be updated(updated to 2.32.0), gcc had to be updated from 5.4 to something newer(I updated to gcc-9)) and it got pretty far into the compilation.
Now when I try to build PX4Autopilot with the following command :
DONT_RUN=1 make px4_sitl_default gazebo
This is what I get :
user@ubuntu:~/PX4-Autopilot$ DONT_RUN=1 make px4_sitl_default gazebo

}
now what should I do to get this fixed? whats missing?
For the first part I tried adding -pthread -lpthread to the add_compile_options in cmake/px4_add_common_flags.cmake to no avail. I have no idea about the rest of the issues.
So how should I go about this ?
Thanks a lot in advance
