Closes #6853

On Ubuntu 24.04 installs, the apt sources may only include the base noble suite which causes this error when installing ros-dev-tools:

bzip2 : Depends: libbz2-1.0 (= 1.0.8-5.1) but 1.0.8-5.1build0.1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Added a warning block with steps to check and fix the apt sources before proceeding with the installation.

@Supull thanks for creating PR.

should this be applied only to ubuntu noble based distro, means kilted and jazzy? in that case, we could target this PR to kilted and then backport jazzy? so that we do not need to add this note for rolling, lyrical and humble.

@Supull Supull changed the base branch from rolling to kilted May 24, 2026 06:17

Sorry for the confusion with the new PR. I've cleaned up the branch and force pushed a single clean commit targeting kilted as suggested, to this.

Should I create a separate PR to backport this fix to jazzy or would you prefer a different way?

No we do not need that. once we merge this into kilted, we can backport with using Mergifyio from this PR.
