ignition: init messages, tools, and transport2 #20847

Thanks for adding these. :-) Please do add me as a maintainer. I'm sorry my activity on GitHub has been low lately, hopefully I'll soon be more active. I'm interested in helping with these packages although my main use case for Gazebo dropped off a few months ago, and I would like to stay notified of problems with them so I can try fixing them when I have time. However, I don't consider myself an authority or expert of any kind on NixOS or Gazebo or even CMake. So with that in mind, may I ask why the manual .cmake.in hacking is necessary for this package but not its cousins/ancestors? I'm just curious about what has complicated this case. |

I don't recall exactly what it was, @therealpxc, I think I had ended up with paths like |
