🎉 New feature
Follow up to gazebo-tooling/release-tools#1244.
Summary
We removed version numbers from package names in many places as part of gazebo-tooling/release-tools#1244, prioritizing the places that most affect users. While reviewing gazebo-release/sdformat16-release#5, I realized that we can install the executable commands to unversioned folders as well (see gazebosim/sdformat#1569), which should make our packaging metadata easier to maintain.
Test it
I will open a PR to the release repository and build a nightly deb from this branch for testing.Tested with gazebo-release/gz-msgs12-release#3Checklist
