fix ROS installation prefix for RPM generator

[christianrauch]

The default 'installation_prefix' is '/usr'. This is wrong for 'rosrpm' and has to be prefixed correctly with the default ROS installation.

With a "standard" bloom pipeline for RPM with something like:

# [...] setup ROS repo
dnf install python3-bloom
git clone https://github.com/AprilRobotics/apriltag.git
cd apriltag
bloom-generate rosrpm --ros-distro humble
dnf builddep -y rpm/template.spec
rpmbuild -bb --build-in-place rpm/template.spec

I am getting spec files with @(InstallationPrefix) set to /usr:

%build
# In case we're installing to a non-standard location, look for a setup.sh
# in the install tree and source it.  It will set things like
# CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH, PKG_CONFIG_PATH, and PYTHONPATH.
if [ -f "/usr/setup.sh" ]; then . "/usr/setup.sh"; fi
mkdir -p .obj-%{_target_platform} && cd .obj-%{_target_platform}
%cmake3 \
    -UINCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR \
    -ULIB_INSTALL_DIR \
    -USYSCONF_INSTALL_DIR \
    -USHARE_INSTALL_PREFIX \
    -ULIB_SUFFIX \
    -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="/usr" \
    -DAMENT_PREFIX_PATH="/usr" \
    -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="/usr" \
    -DSETUPTOOLS_DEB_LAYOUT=OFF \
%if !0%{?with_tests}
    -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF \
%endif
    ..

Hence, the rpmbuild will fail.

With this PR (pip3 install -U git+https://github.com/christianrauch/bloom.git@fix_rosrpm):

/usr/local/bin/bloom-generate rosrpm --ros-distro humble

generates a spec file with @(InstallationPrefix) correctly set to /opt/ros/humble:

%build
# In case we're installing to a non-standard location, look for a setup.sh
# in the install tree and source it.  It will set things like
# CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH, PKG_CONFIG_PATH, and PYTHONPATH.
if [ -f "/opt/ros/humble/setup.sh" ]; then . "/opt/ros/humble/setup.sh"; fi
mkdir -p .obj-%{_target_platform} && cd .obj-%{_target_platform}
%cmake3 \
    -UINCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR \
    -ULIB_INSTALL_DIR \
    -USYSCONF_INSTALL_DIR \
    -USHARE_INSTALL_PREFIX \
    -ULIB_SUFFIX \
    -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="/opt/ros/humble" \
    -DAMENT_PREFIX_PATH="/opt/ros/humble" \
    -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="/opt/ros/humble" \
    -DSETUPTOOLS_DEB_LAYOUT=OFF \
%if !0%{?with_tests}
    -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF \
%endif
    ..

Seems like a slam dunk to me. Thanks for the PR!

The bug is so obvious, I am wondering if this feature is never used, how does the build farm use bloom to generate RPM packages?

We've been building RPM packages for a very long time now, I think that nobody's been invoking bloom-generate directly to build RPM packages. I typically clone down and use git-bloom-generate.

@nuclearsandwich Can you have a look at this?
