when a stack is not in the .rosinstall file, do I have a mean to know what's the package version.

To be concrete I don't know if which version of orocos_toolcahin_ros is installed http://www.ros.org/wiki/orocos_toolch...

The CMakeLists.txt of the stack, i.e. that file that lies right next to stack.xml contains the stack version. You can either browse the stack's repo online or check it out and check that file. Also, if you are installing from debian packages, an 'apt-cache show deb-package' shows you the stack version somewhere on top of the output.

Thanks for this, it is not the best way to have the version but it will be usefull when I'll code my own stack !
