rosws init ~/tidyup_workspace /opt/ros/fuerte source ~/tidyup_workspace/setup.bash rosws merge http://alufr-ros-pkg.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/tidyup_robot/tidyup_robot.rosinstall rosws update source ~/tidyup_workspace/setup.bash rosmake tidyup_executive rosmake tidyup_tools
Creating a configuration package
Create a new configuration package for your environment and add it to the overlay:
roscd rosrun tidyup_tools roscreate-tidyup-pkg tidyup_launch_tut rosws set tidyup_launch_tut
