Binary installation

[gariepyalex]

Hi,
I am on a fresh installation of Ubuntu 13.04, using ros hydro. I followed the official instructions to install ros. I added :

sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu raring main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros-latest.list'

as instructed. I also updated apt properly ( sudo apt-get update ).

However, when I try to install with apt-get install ros-hydro-ardrone_autonomy, it cannot find the package. I get :

E: Unable to locate package ros-hydro-ardrone_autonomy

I installed it last week and it just worked. Any ideas?

You are right. The binary build on the buildfarm is broken at the moment. I am investigating the problem. Thank you very much for the report.

Fixed in 1.3.4

I still can't find it via apt-get.

@gariepyalex Unfortunately the broken build on the buildfarm caused the package to be removed from ros repositories. The new version is on its way to be pushed back. It usually takes some time between one week to two weeks. I am sorry for the inconvenience. In the meantime:

1. You can build the 1.3.4 from source. or
2. Get the .deb file for your ubuntu version from here. You can install that with sudo dpkg -i xxx.deb.

@gariepyalex The binary for hydro should now be accessible via apt-get.

Thank you!

I've done everything the original poster did, and my ubuntu 12.04 is unable to find the package.

I have ROS installed, in case that is somehow required for finding the package.

[mani-monaj]

Please do a sudo apt-get update first before trying to install it.

I did, but it did not make the apt-get for the binary work. Either way, I downloaded it and compiled it myself, so, problem solved! Thanks for your quick response :D

EDIT: The problem was that you have the package listed with a _ instead of a -
