Solve Dependency on irobot_create_msgs? about create3_examples

[slowrunner]

Is this the correct solution?

mkdir -p create3_examples_ws/src
cd create3_examples_ws/src
git clone https://github.com/iRobotEducation/create3_examples.git
git clone https://github.com/iRobotEducation/irobot_create_msgs.git   <--- seems to allow the build to proceed.
cd ..
colcon build
source install/local_setup.sh

The irobot_create_msgs dependency is a standard ROS 2 package, so there are no requirements on where to place it and how to build it (as long as the packages that depend on it, e.g. the create 3 examples, can find it).

The two most common options are:

• clone the package in the same workspace as the examples and build everything together.
• clone the messages package in its own workspace, build it with colcon build and then source the setup script of this workspace before building the create 3 examples package in another workspace.

Thank you. I'm only with ROS for a few months now creating very basic ROS2 nodes for my GoPiGo3 robot from scratch. Eager to learn about the Create3 ROS2 nodes created by folks that already understand ROS2.
