[ros-users] RTT_COMPONENT_PATH in ROS debs

As a followup, on unstable, the size of orocos_toolchain_ros is about
700MB. About 200MB of this are "test" executables in rtt/bin, so, if
you want to get this even smaller, that appears to be the main place
to look.  There are some other inefficiencies (~100MB), though it
seems that the msg libraries themselves are pretty expensive. There
are 134MB worth of "librtt-ros" typekit and transport libraries in
rtt_ros_integration_std_msgs. As other msgs are added, this may become
a dominant cost.
