1 | initial version |
Your error was probably caused by the fact that you had an out-of-date apt database, which caused apt-get
to try and download old versions of the debians. Compare:
ros-indigo-moveit-setup-assistant_0.6.0-0trusty-20150308-0703-+0000_amd64.deb
with:
ros-indigo-moveit-setup-assistant_0.6.0-0trusty-20150125-0937-+0000_amd64.deb
The first file is a recent release (note the date: 2015-03-08), the second resulted in your 404
errors (again, date: 2015-01-25). The way the ROS package repository works is that older versions are deleted, so you cannot download them anymore. Trying to fetch old releases will cause HTTP 404
errors (as the files don't exist anymore).
By running sudo apt-get update
, you update apt
's database, and it will then download the correct versions of files.
