Hi Ugo, Thanks for the update. I have been releasing into unstable so far so diamondback might not be synced up correctly. I will release the latest versions from unstable into diamondback and that should fix the problems. And yes, the syntax for ompl_planning is now different in diamondback from cturtle.
