This is a temporary way to install the PMB-2 simulation. Soon it will be available through ROS Indigo binary packages. These instructions assume that you are comfortable with ROS and the catkin build system. Please familiarize yourself using the ROS and catkin tutorials.
For a source-based installation, first create an empty workspace:
mkdir ~/pmb2_public_ws cd ~/pmb2_public_ws
Download the rosinstall and copy it in ~/pmb2_public_ws. In order to clone the required repositories do as follows:
cd ~/pmb2_public_ws rosinstall src /opt/ros/indigo pmb2_public.rosinstall
Then run this command to make sure that all dependencies are installed.
sudo rosdep init rosdep update rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro indigo --skip-keys "pal_gazebo_plugins speed_limit sensor_to_cloud"
Finally you can build the workspace and source it:
catkin build source ./devel/setup.bash
and it is ready to go!
