Installing Gazebo 9 and 10 from source

Hi guys,

I tried to install gazebo 9 and 10 from source on Ubuntu 16.04: link text.

I got these errors:

-- BUILD ERRORS: These must be resolved before compiling.
--  Missing: SDF version >=6. Required for reading and writing SDF files.
--  Missing: Ignition msgs1 library (libignition-msgs-dev).
--  Missing: Ignition math (libignition-math4-dev)
--  Missing: Ignition Transport (libignition-transport4-dev)
-- END BUILD ERRORS

After installing the package libsdformat6-dev i got these errors :

-- BUILD ERRORS: These must be resolved before compiling.
--  Missing: Ignition msgs1 library (libignition-msgs-dev).
--  Missing: Ignition Transport (libignition-transport4-dev)
-- END BUILD ERRORS

Even if I install the libignition-msgs-dev and libignition-transport4-dev. I still get exactly the same error message:

-- BUILD ERRORS: These must be resolved before compiling.
--  Missing: Ignition msgs1 library (libignition-msgs-dev).
--  Missing: Ignition Transport (libignition-transport4-dev)
-- END BUILD ERRORS

I had to come back to gazebo 8 because it's the only version which work with the gui plugins. See this page for more information: link text Fyi, I tried a fresh install gazebo 9 and 10 on a computer that never had any gazebo installed on it.

Do you have an idea how to fix this issue?

Did you do the apt-get remove... step before installing?

As explained in the post, yes I followed the information on that link: http://gazebosim.org/tutorials?tut=install_from_source and I've tried to install gazebo 9 and 10 on a computer that never had any gazebo installed on it.
