While I was going through link: http://wiki.ros.org/husky_gazebo/Tuto...
In the command:
$ sudo apt-get install ros-<distro>-husky-simulator
I replaced <distro> with melodic
But I am getting following error:
E: Unable to locate package ros-melodic-husky-package
If you visit http://wiki.ros.org/husky_gazebo you'll see that this package is currently only released on Indigo and Kinetic (notice the blue boxes at the top of the wiki page). This is why you cannot install from apt-get.
You can certainly try to build this package from source, but you are not guaranteed that it will work.
To give some confidence that it might work, I just tried to compile husky package on ROS Melodic, and was able to compile with almost no issues (although I haven't tested it extensively). A few notes:
apt-get.husky_playpen.launch file were:
logXXXX calls to CONSOLE_BRIDGE_logXXXX using a couple of sed commands.Since the last posted answer, ros-melodic-husky-package has been added to http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu bionic main.
If you are still encountering this error on Ubuntu 18.04, check your sources.list with
grep ^ /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | grep ros
If that returns nothing, something must have removed the ROS repo from your sources list and you'll need to add it back using the instructions from the installation page:
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu $(lsb_release -sc) main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros-latest.list'sudo apt-key adv --keyserver 'hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80' --recv-key C1CF6E31E6BADE8868B172B4F42ED6FBAB17C654Asked: 2018-06-01 07:05:48 -0500
