Probably.

Since "navigation" was a rosbuild stack, now a metapackage, only other
metapackages are allowed to depend on it. Since the devel version of
segbot_navigation is a regular catkin package, that probably ought to
generate an error.

I that dependency needed at that level?

I suppose eband_local_planner must declare all the navigation packages that
it actually uses.
