Debs Installation
Coming soon - these instructions will be valid once indigo debs are officially released. |
Hydro-Devel Sources
These will be phased out once we have fully transitioned to indigo. |
These use the hydro-devel branches on GitHub.
> sudo apt-get install ros-hydro-catkin > mkdir ~/rocon > cd ~/rocon > wstool init -j10 src https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robotics-in-concert/rocon/hydro-devel/rocon_app_platform.rosinstall > rosdep install --from-paths src /opt/ros/hydro --ignore-src --rosdistro hydro -y > . /opt/ros/hydro/setup.bash > catkin_make
Indigo Sources
Things are working more or less here, more often less (esp. wrt. to python3 - don't try on Trusty!) and it contains quite a few more sources for unreleased repos. |
These use the indigo branches on GitHub.
> sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-catkin > mkdir ~/rocon > cd ~/rocon > wstool init -j10 src https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robotics-in-concert/rocon/hydro-devel/rocon_app_platform.rosinstall > rosdep install --from-paths src /opt/ros/indigo --ignore-src --rosdistro indigo -y > . /opt/ros/indigo/setup.bash > catkin_make
Note
For instructions on the installation of a ROCON concert/multimaster system, see ROCON installation instructions.
