Revision history [back]

Ubuntu 12.10 is not officially supported by ROS Fuerte (or any version of ROS). Which means that you will have to install from source. In order to compile ROS, your system will need many libraries that ROS is dependent on. I mentioned liblog4cxx10-dev and @dornhege mentioned libbz2-dev. It seems that the source install instructions for Ubuntu are a bit disorganized (IMO) the dependencies aren't really mentioned until section 1.7. The Debian source install page, for example, lists the dependencies right at the top of the page.

Regardless, installing all of the dependencies mentioned in either of these locations should help you continue on with the building process.
