Patch release and new packages for ROS 2 Crystal Clemmys 2019-03-14

[nuclearsandwich]

Crystal’s third patch release is here!

The changes I’m most excited about:

• Actions are now available in rclpy. You can get the details from ros2/rclpy#257.
• If you’re interested in using log4cxx for your logging needs, the rcl_logging_log4cxx package has now been released. Using this package naturally relies on log4cxx, so refer to the installation instructions for your platform to get it.

The changes in sros2 introduce a new dependency on the rosdep key: python3-lxml
The installation documentation has been updated but I’ll highlight the changes here:

Depending on the platform, users may need to get the additional dependency:

• With Ubuntu debs: apt will install suitable the suitable dependency
• With Ubuntu binary releases: The rosdep tool should resolve the dependency (installs python3-lxml)
• With macOS: The dependency should be resolved by installing lxml via pip until using rosdep is an option (see https://github.com/ros/rosdistro/pull/20560#issuecomment-472628304)
• With Windows: The dependency should be resolved by installing lxml via pip
• With Windows (debug): The dependency should be resolved by installing a custom-built lxml via pip: https://github.com/ros2/ros2/releases/tag/lxml-archives

You can check out full list of changes in the patch release tracking issue. We’ve also discovered some issues in Fast-RTPS that are being added to the Known issues section of the Crystal Clemmys release page. I’m linking the section now even though they won’t appear until the next documentation rebuild. This is the change for you first viewers.

As was initially reported by @LanderU the binary artifacts uploaded to GitHub for this release were incomplete. I’ve re-uploaded the artifacts and published their checksums to the release page. If you had any trouble with them previously, please give them another try.
