Can not install Gazebo2

I tried the way from the following page http://gazebosim.org/tutorials?tut=install_ubuntu&cat=install

But instead of Gazebo5 I wanted to install Gazebo2 (for ROS Indigo) However, no packages for Gazebo2 can be found (Gazebo5 works though).

I have also tried http://gazebosim.org/tutorials?tut=ros_wrapper_versions&cat=connect_ros under Gazebo 2.x series, but again nothing is found for me to install

Is there any other source where I can install Gazebo2 from?

I would try installing ros-indigo-desktop-full (through apt-get). This will automatically include gazebo2 and worked for me. So simply: sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-desktop-full

Good luck!

+1. I would also recommend to read the special section about ROS in the gazebo documentation. You probably don't need to use the packages.osrfoundation.org repo, disable it.
