I come up with the following error while installing ros-electric-desktop-full:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: ros-electric-desktop-full: Depends: ros-electric-vision-opencv (= 1.6.8-s1321009367~lucid) but it is not going to be installed Depends: ros-electric-image-pipeline (= 1.6.3-s1321009993~lucid) but it is not going to be installed Depends: ros-electric-image-transport-plugins (= 1.4.2-s1321009887~lucid) but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages

So I went ahead and tried to install ros-electric-vision-opencv on its own using "sudo apt-get install ros-electric-vision-opencv", but had the following error message:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: ros-electric-vision-opencv: Depends: libopencv2.3-dev (= 2.3.1+svn6514+branch23-8~lucid) but 2.3.1+svn6514+branch23-6~lucid is to be installed E: Broken packages

Is there a problem with the dependencies for libopencv2.3-dev?

Thank you!

Edit1: Looking into the problem further, I noticed that http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu/lists/ros-lucid-electric_lucid_main_i386_Packages (updated today) uses 2.3.1+svn6514+branch23-8~lucid for libopencv2.3-dev. However,http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/binary-i386/Packages uses 2.3.1+svn6514+branch23-6~lucid. I think this is causing the problem. Should this be reported as a bug?

I found this to be the case, as well: The following packages have unmet dependencies:ros-electric-eigen : Depends: libeigen3-dev (= 3.0.1-1+ros4~natty) but 3.0.2-3+natty1 is to be installed

The problem with dependencies has been sorted out. I managed to install electric-desktop-full successfully today.

I had the same problem as the OP (lucid and oneiric). The problem seems to (now) be fixed for me by switching from Freiburg mirror to the main mirror. So it might be fixed upstream but changes need a while to settle down.

Could this be related to this question?

Otherwise, it could just be the case the the repostitory is in the process of being updated and the dependencies didn't propagate through completely yet.

I had a working installation and accepted an update some days ago, which basically seems to have broken it.

How to switch from Freiburg mirror to the main mirror?

I followed instructions in the page, but always Unmet dependencies from the night before yesterday. Installations before that night always succeeded.

I manually edited /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros-latest.list to only contain the following line: "deb http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu oneiric main". Make sure to substitue oneiric for whatever dist u r using. Don't forget to call "sudo apt-get update" afterwards, before trying to install/upgrade.

The content of my /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros-latest.list is exact the "deb http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu oneiric main", but still Unmet dependencies.

So I assume you have oreinic installed and did apt-get update. You could try installing the offending packages directly. For me I think "apt-get install ros-electric-vision-opencv" help. If that shows you a missing dependency, try installing that dependency directly and so on.

Yup, I sudo apt-get installed libopencv2.3-dev, though. Still "Depends: libopencv2.3-dev (= 2.3.1+svn6514+branch23-7~oneiric) but 2.3.1+svn6514+branch23-8~oneiric is to be installed". The same as http://answers.ros.org/question/2887/libopencv23-dev-conflict
