initial version

OpenCV 2.4.3 just came out, so I went ahead and just packaged it myself and added provides/conflicts/replaces fields for ros-fuerte-opencv2 and ros-groovy-opencv2 (so no compiling from source, and it automatically uninstalls/replaces the existing ros-<version>-opencv2 package in a clean way).

I tested the packages on my precise+fuerte cleanroom and the basic program above compiles as expected; however, I have yet to test it with rosbuild. Presumably, since the opencv2 ros package (provided by vision-opencv) uses pkg-config to grab the cflags and libs, the flags from 2.4.3 should be pulled in and everything should just work.

So if anyone is interested, the debs (libopencv2.4 and libopencv2.4-dev, both version 2.4.3) for oneiric and precise are here, and setup instructions for the PPA are here.
