initial version

I tried to hack this.

I found the following bfl page and tried to install precompiled binaries: http://orocos.org/bfl/packages

As this package as been dormant since 2007 it insists on the taking the distro parameters breezy, dapper, edgy or feisty

I chose feisty.

This failed with "Hash Sum mismatch"

I tried to hack this.

think I found may have solved this with the following:

Download source from here: http://orocos.org/orocos/source-code-2 (I chose version 8).

Unzip this source code into your catkin_ws/src folder .

Get the package.xml from here: https://github.com/ros-gbp/bfl-release (you just need the file that matches your ros version (lunar for me)

Put the package.xml into the orcos source code folder in above.

Open package.xml and change the version number to 0.8.0 if that is what you downloaded.

catkin_make will not work, it will complain about the existence of some non-catkin cmake stuff.

You will have to use catkin_make_isolated

For me this yields the following but it looks like a different error bfl page and tried to install precompiled binaries: http://orocos.org/bfl/packages

As this may be compiling successfully.:

Could not find a package as configuration file provided by "move_base_msgs"
  with any of the following names:

    move_base_msgsConfig.cmake
    move_base_msgs-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "move_base_msgs" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
  "move_base_msgs_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.  If
  "move_base_msgs" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it
  has been dormant since 2007 it insists on the taking the distro parameters breezy, dapper, edgy or feisty

I chose feisty.

This failed with "Hash Sum mismatch"

installed.

Which is no fun because move_base is in the navigation package.
