How to install pr2_teleop with ROS Indigo

I was trying out the hector_quadrotor stack tutorials.

http://wiki.ros.org/hector_quadrotor/Tutorials/Quadrotor%20indoor%20SLAM%20demo

where, to control I did not have a joystick, so I wanted to use the laptop keyboard instead.

so I tried to install 'teleoppr2keyboard', but could not do it with ROS Indigo in Ubuntu 14.04.

Is there a way to install it from source. If so, can you give me some hints on how to do it. I am pretty new to ROS.

pr2_teleop is not yet available on indigo. Try using teleop_twist_keyboard instead.

Well, I am using indigo and to be able to use pr2_teleop I cloned the correspondent folder (here) into my catkin workspace, building it normally. It works. :)
