How to install Groovy on Ubuntu 13.04

edit

You can install Groovy by using the same repository quantal uses; however, I caution you with this. I did it, but it works only after doing some things first.

To begin, you must install qt4, NOT qt5. It will not work with qt5 (at least, for my purposes it hasn't). Also note that there might be some unexpected issues in the future with this... But, try it. It's working fine for me.

One more thing: you will need to link python correctly. Run this command:

sudo ln -sf /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython2.7.so.1 /usr/lib/libpython2.7.so

This will fix the python linking. Good luck!

This doesn't directly answer the question, but MORSE does not just support Ubuntu 13.04. I'm currently running it on several 12.04 systems. As long as you have cmake, Python 3.2, and Blender >2.62 MORSE should run. See the installation instructions at: http://www.openrobots.org/morse/doc/latest/user/installation.html

EDIT: I think the confusion might be in the fact that Morse 1.0 is only available in the package manager for Ubuntu 13.04 and newer. Morse 0.6 can be installed on previous versions using the package manager. MORSE 1.0 can be installed (very easily) from source on older versions. Things might have changed with 1.0, but on previous versions the version in the package manager did not support ROS. You had to build from source to enable ROS middleware support. The MORSE mailing list would be a better place to get an answer to that question.
