           Summary: GetRot() : angle-axis calculation not robust
           Product: KDL
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: Primitives
        AssignedTo: [email protected]

KDL::Rotation rot = KDL::Rotation::Quaternion(x,y,z,w);
KDL::vector axis = rot.getRot();

Two more or less the same quaternions give a completely different result
-------------------------------
45.085 [ Warning][Logger] Commanded Quaternion: 0.999991 , -0.00419755 ,
-3.73226e-16 , 1.04598e-16      
45.085 [ Warning][Logger] Commanded axis: 4.29121e-12 , -1.80127e-14 , 0
-------------------------------
47.162 [ Warning][Logger] Commanded Quaternion: 0.999969 , -0.00783564 ,
3.20454e-16 , 5.25546e-17
47.162 [ Warning][Logger] Commanded axis: -3.1415 , 0.0246159 , -nan

It turned out to be a problem with the epsilon value of
getRotAngle(axis,epsilon) 

For epsilon bigger than 0.001 it works fine!
