The current solution to remove the following packages installed via .deb

sudo apt-get remove ros-<distro>-gazebo-ros-control sudo apt-get remove ros-<distro>-gazebo-plugings

and also any other gazebo pkgs you want, but these two do the trick. Notice that you'd have to add version number next to gazebo<version number=""> above is you are not using the default gazebo for your distro. I am using gazebo7 with Indigo.

afterwards, clone the following in your own catkin_ws, and checkout the branch which corresponds to your gazebo version. Default should work with Indigo. https://github.com/ros-simulation/gazebo_ros_pkgs.git

just build them by catkin_make and source your workspace. Hopefully Gazebo won't crash now.

This worked for me.
