pykdl_utils functionality for Kinetic?

[josephcoombe]

Hi,

I'd like to use the pykdl_utils like this with ROS Kinetic.

Given that pykdl_utils is not supported on Kinetic, I want to know if its functionality has been absorbed/adopted by another Kinetic-compatible package.

It appears that pykdl_utils works in Kinetic. I just copied the source into my catkin_ws. There are just no released binaries for it on the ROS build farm. Are there existing plans to maintain pykdl_utils for Kinetic?

If no, I would be interested in becoming the maintainer.

Hi, have you already done something about it?
I use it in Kinetic, for inverse kinematics is fine, but inverse dynamics don't work.

It shows that an AttributeError：PyKDL has no ChainIdSolver_RNE.
