When sharing large amounts of terminal output, especially build errors like this, I always recommend putting it into a https://gist.github.com/ and then sharing a link to the gist. You’ll avoid the formatting problem and save a lot of space in the discussion thread.

The compiler is telling you that it cannot find a bunch of libraries required by ignition (and therefore also required by RMF’s ignition plugins.

There is something wrong with the way ignition is installed on your machine. Somehow cmake believes you have ignition installed, and also somehow believes that these library dependencies are installed, but yet the linker cannot actually find the libraries on your system. There isn’t much we can do for you except advise that you try reinstalling ignition and attempting a completely fresh build after deleting the build/ and install/ directories in your colcon workspace.
