rosinstalls out of date
tfoote opened this issue · comments
The rosinstall files such as: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yujinrobot/yujin_tools/master/rosinstalls/indigo/turtlebot.rosinstall
have old branch names for several repos as reported here: http://answers.ros.org/question/188073/turtlebot-indigo-install-from-source-failing-to-get-rocon-source/?comment=245281#post-id-245281
Can we not use rosinstall_generator to avoid things like this getting out of date in the instructions?
i.e. use a rosinstall generator instruction in the tutorial? e.g. something like this for the rocon workspace:
rosinstall_generator --rosdistro=indigo rocon rocon_concert rocon_multimaster rocon_msgs rocon_tools rocon_app_platform rocon_tutorials concert_services concert_software_farm rocon_qt_gui concert_scheduling std_capabilities rqt_capabilities world_canvas world_canvas_libs world_canvas_msgs | wstool merge -t src -
...that doesn't actually work since the world canvas repos of corot's don't have meta packages
Ach..awkward in some ways as there's a few developmental workspaces in there. I'll move to setting up the kinetic workspace like this as it's eminently more controllable.
The rosinstall for indigo and the wiki instructions are now up to date and working for indigo.
