Planned migration of abb_driver to its own repository about abb HOT 4 CLOSED

abb_driver has been removed (#180), readme updated (#181).

Only thing remaining is to release it again from the new repository.

Until that time, abb_driver will be built from the already released source tarball, so nothing will break, even without releasing it from the new location.

We'll keep this issue open until abb_driver has been released from it's new location.

Not going to create a .rosinstall file, as it should not be needed: as soon as abb_driver has been released again, rosdep should be able to resolve it and it should be installed automatically.

As abb_driver is not needed for a from-source build of ros-industrial/abb (it's only an exec_depend), this would seem to remove the need to facilitate source builds with a .rosinstall file.

With the same rationale, we're not going to update the Travis configuration (as that's essentially a from-source build but then as part of CI).

abb_driver released into Kinetic and Melodic (see OP for links to rosdistro PRs).

I'll close this once those PRs have been merged.

Both PRs have been merged.

Pending an issue with the buildfarm (this one), abb_driver will be built from its new location and be available similar to how it was available when it was still part of ros-industrial/abb.

As this completes the migration, I'm closing this issue.
