    Hello I am trying to build the ROS-TCP-CONNECTOR package in ROS2 foxy. I get a catkin error when I try to build it so I try running rosdep and get the error "cannot locate rosdep definition for [message_runtime]". Any idea what is wrong?

    Many thanks! :)

    I see that you are using ROS2 foxy , but mentioneted a "catkin" error if this was not a typo , check that the package you are trying to build is a ROS2 package

    Hi, you are using ROS2 but using a ROS1 branch of the repository likely. You need to switch to a ROS2 branch in the repository because the code is different. I had this same error and fixed it this way if you have made the mistake that I did. :)
