I have openrave installed, which uses libbullet-2.81

When I try to install drcsim-2.2 I get the following errors

Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/libbullet_2.81-1ppa1~precise_amd64.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I tried again:

Groovy$sudo apt-get install drcsim

drcsim is already the newest version.
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 gazebo : Depends: libbullet but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

Gazebo pulls in libbullet-2.81 from the OSRF repository. Unfortunately it conflicts with the existing bullet version you have installed which looks like it's libbullet-2.80. You'll probably have to uninstall that before installing gazebo.

I neglected to include the part where sudo apt-get remove libbullet was giving me an error after this. Removing libbullet before trying the -f install on another machine avoided this issue, so drcsim-2.2 is working on that machine.

This should be consider as a bug. I have filed a ticket.

As iche033 comments, a workaround is to uninstall system libbullet and install OSRF provided libbullet. What is going to happen with openrave, if it was installed from packages, will depend upon the package dependencies. If it depends on exactly libbullet-2.80, we should look at it carefully because probably the fix is not trivial. Feel free to start a ticket if this is the case.

Otherwise, installing it on top of OSRF libbullet should work. Thanks for reporting.
