Only released in EOL distros:  

This is the ROS interface to the OMPL motion planning package. This package will allow you to easily create and configure a motion planner for your robot. Most configuration is automated, however you will have to specify the parts of the robot for which you want to create a motion planner. You can also define the planner in a "task" space by defining your own instance of a state transformation function that will convert back and forth between the task and configuration space of the robot.
