How to install gazebo onto jetson tk1?

When I install gazebo using sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-gazebo-ros, I get this error:

E: Unable to locate package ros-indigo-gazebo-ros

Why ? Can't the gazebo be installed on jetson tk1? Or I have got to install from source?

Jetson TK1 has an ARM processor (armhf architecture) and ros-indigo-gazebo-ros is only available for i386 and amd64 architectures.

You could try to compile from source, but it is going to be difficult because probably gazebo's dependencies will not be available for ARM either. Besides, even if you could manage to compile gazebo in a Jetson TK1 it would run excruciatingly slow.

In general, please provide more info for troubleshooting questions. See wiki.ros.org/Support for more.

With lack of your info, I just recommend to internet search with the error message. There's a number of similar result on answer.ros.org.

well if it says cannot locate package! that means the package is not yet released for jetson tk1.
