Erratic C Turtle Installation
Contents
Installation
These instructions only cover installing Erratic-related software for ROS C Turtle on a supported Ubuntu-based machine.
Configure your Ubuntu repositories
Configure your Ubuntu repositories to allow "restricted," "universe," and "multiverse." You can follow the Ubuntu guide for instructions on doing this.
Setup your sources.list
Setup your sources.list file to accept Debian packages from the ROS server.
Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty)
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://code.ros.org/packages/ros/ubuntu jaunty main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros-latest.list'
Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic)
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://code.ros.org/packages/ros/ubuntu karmic main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros-latest.list'
Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid)
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://code.ros.org/packages/ros/ubuntu lucid main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros-latest.list'
Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick)
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://code.ros.org/packages/ros/ubuntu maverick main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros-latest.list'
Set up your keys
wget http://code.ros.org/packages/ros.key -O - | sudo apt-key add -
Debian Installation
Make sure you have re-indexed the ROS.org server:
sudo apt-get update
Next, install the erratic_robot stack:
sudo apt-get install ros-cturtle-erratic-robot
or click here
Environment setup
It's convenient if the ROS environment variables are automatically added to your bash session every time a new shell is launched:
echo "source /opt/ros/cturtle/setup.bash" >> ~/.bashrc . ~/.bashrc
If you have more than one ROS distribution installed, ~/.bashrc must only source the setup.bash for the version you are currently using.
If you just want to change the environment of your current shell, you can type:
source /opt/ros/cturtle/setup.bash
