Hi,

I'm trying to install ROS Electric in Linux Fedora 13, and I get the error below.
Someone experiencing the same? What I'm doing wrong?
I followed the Fedora Installation Instructions, and already had ROS installed in other machine and everything went fine, but I realy need this in Fedora 13.

Bootstrapping ROS build
Detected ros_comm bootstrapping it too.

ROS Electric is designed to work with Python 2.6, which I believe is also the default for Fedora 13. See REP 3

Based on your error message you're running an older version of python which is going to be a big challenge, needing to patch many files.

Thanks for answer.

For some reason I have installed python2.5 and python2.6, so to use python2.6 I need a hard link, and everything went good.

ln -f /usr/bin/python2.6 /usr/local/bin/python
