Update Building-a-Visual-Robot-Model-with-URDF-from-Scratch.rst (ros2#3071) (ros2#3072)
I believe the bug with respect to locale was fixed a while back ros/urdfdom_headers#42 so setting LC_NUMERIC is no longer necessary (cherry picked from commit 611f948) Co-authored-by: Matthew Elwin <[email protected]>
