    I managed to load Gazebo 8 into a simple Dockerfile. Compilation time has been reduced to 20 minutes more or less. Still need to test Manifold and Ignition math on it.

    Installed directly after Gazebo 8, ignition-math from sources (into the Graph branch) and Manifold. Everything compiles fine but when we run the plugins we get nothing displayed but the boxes moved over them. After closing the simulation a double free or corruption error and a backtrace is displayed. I guess this is because of the installation of ignition math over an already installed package so it breaks. I'll try to match the dependency first by installing ignition-math from sources in the required commit and then install Gazebo 8 and Manifold and see how it goes.

    Just a suggestion: why don't you ping Carlos, maybe he ca give a hand with the versions and/or already have seen this issue.

    After the meeting with OSRF we will wait for Manifold and Ignition Math new updates so they are compatible with the new Gazebo library versions.

    @andres_fortier Do we want to pursue this now that Carlos has provided compatible branches for both Manifold and Ign-Math libraries?

    Yes, but this has lower priority compared to RNDF / box plugin in Drake. I think this can wait until @agalbachicar returns from vacations.
