The first maintainer entry holds an email address but no name: <maintainer email="avannobel@kinova.ca" /> dpkg-source needs the form "Name <email>". It therefore reads "<avannobel@kinova.ca>" and stops, which fails the source package job on the build farm: dpkg-source: error: cannot parse Maintainer field value "<avannobel@kinova.ca>" No binary package of kortex_description can exist while the source job fails. The Kinova MoveIt configurations depend on this package, so they have no binaries either. The author entry on the line above gives the name, so this commit uses it.

Description
kortex_description/package.xmlhas a maintainer entry with an email address but no name:dpkg-sourceneeds the formName <email>. It reads<avannobel@kinova.ca>and stops, so the source package job fails on the ROS build farm:Lsrc_uR__kortex_description__ubuntu_resolute__source#138Effect
No source package means no binary package.
kortex_descriptionhas produced no binaries for Lyrical, and the packages that depend on it have none either:kortex_descriptionkinova_gen3_7dof_robotiq_2f_85_moveit_configkinova_gen3_6dof_robotiq_2f_85_moveit_configkinova_gen3_lite_moveit_configThis also reaches users outside this repository: the MoveIt Quickstart in RViz tutorial uses
kinova_gen3_7dof_robotiq_2f_85_moveit_config, so that tutorial cannot run from binary packages on Lyrical.Change
Use the name from the
authorentry on the line above:Deleting the entry would also work, because
Marq Rasmussenis already a maintainer. I kept the entry and added the name, which seemed closer to the intent.This is the only maintainer entry in the repository without a name. Every other package is correct.
Testing
catkin_pkg, which the build farm uses, now returns a usable value for both maintainers:Before the change the first entry produced
<avannobel@kinova.ca>, which is whatdpkg-sourcerejects.A release is needed after this merge for the build farm to pick it up.
