I have updated the package to work with later versions of ROS. You can find it here.

2016-06-21 12:33:43 -0500 answered a question ros_control makes Gazebo abort

The current solution is to remove the following packages installed via .deb and manually build them. Run

sudo apt-get remove ros-<distro>-gazebo-ros-control sudo apt-get remove ros-<distro>-gazebo-plugings

and also any other gazebo pkgs you want to remove, but these two do the trick. Notice that you'd have to add version number next to gazebo above is you are not using the default gazebo for your distro. I am using gazebo7 with Indigo so I replaced gazebo with gazebo7.

afterwards, clone the following in your own catkin_ws, and checkout the branch which corresponds to your gazebo version. Default should work with Indigo. https://github.com/ros-simulation/gaz...

just build them by catkin_make and source your workspace. Hopefully Gazebo won't crash now.

This worked for me.

Very helpful. I wanted to handle the program termination using ctrl-c and it wasn't clean. Using your method and suggestion the edit by @einrob I can.

Precisely, this had been a common occurance for a long time and many other workaround get you stuck somewhere in the future, like installing turtlebot etc on hydro. Thanks for the proper fix.

2014-02-18 19:40:43 -0500 answered a question Unmet dependencies in apt-get install ros-hydro-desktop-full

In my case I had to install libbullet (2.81-2ppa1~precise). I got to that by running

sudo apt-get install ros-hydro-dektop-full

and then kept on running apt-get for the unmet dependency till I came to libbullet..

That I installed from package manager and seems that openrave installation has some older version of libbullet that prevents that install of hydro full in the first place. After doing the install from package manager, I got to install the full desktop hydro.

2014-02-09 08:13:39 -0500 asked a question Using sensor_msgs/JointState in the newly released rosmatlab my MathWorks

I recently installed the rosmatlab package from Mathworks. I am trying to create a msg of type sensor_msgs/JointState as follows, msg = rosmatlab.message('sensor_msgs/JointState', node)

given that roscore and node are already defined.

I am then using

msg.setName('something')

I am getting the following error

No method 'setName' with matching signature found for class 'org.ros.internal.message.$Proxy23'.

I cannot find the documentation for msg.setName to look for the funcitons arguments.

I can however call

msg.setPosition(21) and msg.setVelocity as expected.

Please help
