    I ran the voxl-vision-hub for the first time, installed ROS and ran voxl-configure-mpa.
    After running those commands, the command:

    voxl-camera-server -l
    

    now only returns this:

    ====================================
    Number of cameras detected: 1
    ====================================
    

    instead of the longer information output that is shown in the documentation docs. It also causes the camera to not work in the portal anymore until I just run voxl-camera-server.

    I also found that all the servers listed underneath the voxl-vision-hub as requirements are found, except for the apriltag-server. How do i get the apriltag server running?

      @dvz What SDK is this on? This issue should be fixed in SDK 1.5.0

        It looks like this issue was only in the SDK 1.4.4 . Other SDK releases should be OK. A bug in the printing function in libmodal-journal library caused the prints to stop showing up.

          This worked. Thank you.

          However, one thing I still cannot find is the apriltag-server. It is listed as a requirement on the voxl-vision-hub. When I try to start the server, I am told it could not be found, and I also cannot find an apriltag-server in the other documentation pages about relocalization and apriltags.
