gazebo plugin path not set on new fuerte install

Hi all, I'm new to fuerte. Now that that's out there...

I notice this debug message when I run

roslaunch gazeboworlds cameraworld.launch

"pluginPaths and GAZEBOPLUGINPATH doesn't exist.Set GAZEBOPLUGINPATH to Ogre's installation path. ...or are you loading via SystemPlugins?"

Poking around I see that this path is mentioned in:

gazebo/gazebo/share/gazebo-1.0.1/setup.sh

I did an apt-get based install.

  1. Did anyone else get this warning?
  2. Is it a problem that the setup.sh makes reference to /tmp/buildd/ros-fuerte-simulator-gazebo-1.6.7/debian/ros-fuerte-simulator-gazebo/opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/simulator_gazebo/gazebo/gazebo/lib/gazebo-1.0.1/pluginswhich doesn't exist on my machine instead of /opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/simulator_gazebo/gazebo_plugins
  3. Should the GAZEBO_PLUGIN_PATH really be set to the Ogre installation path as the warning indicates?
  4. Is this also related to the gazebomediapath and reason why gazebo can't find cup.mesh for this launch file?

I get that, and towards the end it says: all processes on machine have died, roslaunch will exit shutting down processing monitor... ... shutting down processing monitor complete done
