Hi all
I installed ros kinetic from original ros repository, and then i installed gazebo 8 from http://packages.osrfoundation.org/gazebo/ubuntu repository.
but when I run gazebo_ros package and spwaning robots, robot odometry goes wrong(tf tree shows it),but there were no problem with gazebo 7 from ros original repository!!! what should I do??I think gazebo 8 repository contains unstable packages.

did you properly remove gazebo 7 before installing 8? Did you follow instructions provided here ?

Did you compile gazebo_ros package from source? because gazebo_ros pkg is probably still the one from ros kinetic - gazebo7 and you need one for ros-kinetic - gazebo 8

You could have searched for it. just write gazebo_ros on google and this is the first link... https://github.com/ros-simulation/gaz...
