I am attempting to construct the environment to run PX4 with ROS2 Foxy on Ubuntu 20.04. So far I have been following this guide and I was able to get to the very end of it, in particular to the section "Sanity Check the Installation". Following strictly the indications, the first step is: "Setup your PX4 Ubuntu Linux development environment - the default instructions get the latest version of PX4 source and install all the needed tools".

In the provided link there are different possible paths, given the warning:

ROS users must follow the instructions for: ROS/Gazebo.

I imagined it would be best to follow those, but they are made specifically for Ubuntu 18.04 and ROS melodic. I then reverted to the "standard" installation specified in: the section "Gazebo, JMAVSim and NuttX (Pixhawk) Targets", but running the command:

make px4_sitl_rtps gazebo

I receive a huge series of errors and warnings that is honestly very hard to debug.
Is there an error in my steps possibly? Is there a ROS/Gazebo installation that is up to date with ROS2?

Thanks.
