I need to use the combination Gazebo 5 (I need to use populations) with ROS Indigo (ros-indigo-effort-controllers, l ros-indigo-joint-state-controller), on Ubuntu 14.04.
Any suggestions on how to proceed for the installation?
As shown on http://gazebosim.org/tutorials?tut=ros_wrapper_versions&cat=connect_ros#Gazebo5.xseries
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://packages.osrfoundation.org/gazebo/ubuntu-stable
lsb_release -csmain" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gazebo-stable.list'wget http://packages.osrfoundation.org/gazebo.key -O - | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-gazebo5-ros-pkgs
BTW, maybe you also need to install ros-indigo-gazebo5-ros-control
Just a side note, since I lost 2 working days for this and it might help others: ros-indigo-gazebo5-ros-pkgs and the other ros-indigo-gazebo5 packages seem not available for i386! check http://packages.osrfoundation.org/gazebo/ubuntu-stable/pool/main/r/ros-indigo-gazebo-ros-pkgs/ they are just provided for amd64 and thus will never appear in your apt-get if you’re on i386 (like me). Please note this in the documentation since its missing (or print it bold if it’s there).
