I understand there are several bugs in 7.0.0 (for instance this one) which hve been fixed in later versions like 7.4.0 and 7.5.0. Are there any PPA's which include a prebuilt version of 7.4.0 or do I need to build from source? Thanks,

philip

I'm running 16.04 (in VMWare, even) and the installed version of Gazebo is 7.5:

$ dpkg-query -W | grep gazebo
gazebo7 7.5.0-1~xenial

Interesting. Mine shows

$ dpkg-query -W | grep gazebo
gazebo7 7.0.0+dfsg-2

$ lsb_release -a

What does apt-cache madison gazebo7 show? (Interestingly, running that just now to test it showed me that I have a pending upgrade to Gazebo 7.6 waiting). Have you previously pinned Gazebo to version 7.0.0?

I have not pinned versions of anything on my system.

$ apt-cache madison gazebo7
gazebo7 | 7.0.0+dfsg-2 | http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/universe amd64 Packages
gazebo | 7.0.0+dfsg-2 | http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/universe Sources

This appears to agree with http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/xen... "Source Package: gazebo (7.0.0+dfsg-2) [universe]"

I can see the problem now. My 7.6 package is coming from the OSRF repository. See the "alternative installation" instructions on this page: http://gazebosim.org/tutorials?tut=in...

Excellent. Thank you sir!

Usually I do update to the latest 7.x version when installing 16.04+Kinetic. I do that by adding repositories and key as described in Install Gazebo using Ubuntu packages .

Summary of the commands used:

sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://packages.osrfoundation.org/gazebo/ubuntu-stable `lsb_release -cs` main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gazebo-stable.list'
wget http://packages.osrfoundation.org/gazebo.key -O - | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

After that I get gazebo7 7.14.0-1~xenial (as for October 2018).
