Provide extensions to system packages

Description

Hi,

Currently, ubuntu provides OpenSceneGraph with Qt4. This is boring, because compiling anything for Qt4 is a pain.

Use OSG from the system and build only its Qt plugin for Qt 5 is pretty straitforward:

apt source libopenscenegraph
# untar and cd to source
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DDESIRED_QT_VERSION=5 ..
cd osgQt
make install

Is there a way to do this with robotpkg ? Or would we have to provide another full OSG, at the same version for all targets ?
And if so, is it possible to provide a robotpkg-pyXY-qt4-gepetto-viewer dependent on the osgqt4 from ubuntu, and robotpkg-pyXY-qt5-gepetto-viewer dependant on the osgqt5 from robotpkg ?

Thanks,
Guilhem.

I guess you could provide just a robotpkg package openscenegraph-qt
that depends on the system osg.

Tuning the PREFER.openscenegraph-qt depending on the qt version might
be doable with e.g. $(if $(filter 4,${QT_SELECT}),system,robotpkg)
(to be checked).

Note that on ubuntu-20.04 I can't find a osg-qt. Is it expected?

That's right.

dpkg -L libopenscenegraph-dev | grep -i qt shows osgqt in 18.04 and not in 20.04.
So I guess I'll have to write this robotpkg-qtX-openscenegraph anyway.

Thanks for the answers !
