I found a way to make rqt_smach (which kind of is smach_viewer) work in kinetic - see my gist on Github for more information.

Good point, see the comment above. However I am not really content the way this is displayed - if I see immutable page I assume it actually is immutable. But okay, my fault in this case so whatever.

Wow thanks, that's true. Interesting as I am logged in here so I assumed I would be there too. I am no longer used to systems killing my Cookies while I am editing stuff, this shouldn't happen..

Udpate: I appended a screenshot showing you what I a talking about - I can no longer edit the site and on the right panel "Immutable page" has appeared. Maybe it's just been blocked to me but I'd like to know if this persists..

As I found the packaging process very confusing I wanted to add a new document explaining it bottom up. Now suddenly the page became immutable and I have no idea why. This is the link (early draft): http://wiki.ros.org/ROS/ReleasingAPac...

Thanks in advance for any help on that problem!

Okay thanks. Not really though :/

So I can only use it to provide an alias for the rosdistro names? And what purpose does this have?

I do not get why this is needed for. Some of the documentation and some of the answers on this topic are deprecated.

Because e.g. the link in http://answers.ros.org/question/59505... is broken I'd also like to know the current state on that answer so:

Is the track like a branch for the specific ROS version or could I use the same track e.g. for indigo and jade? Where is this information used / stored? Do I always have to specify a track?

In the bloom-release command you ran above, you specified the --track. By convention you should create tracks with the same name as the ROS distro you are releasing for, but you could name your track what ever you wanted.

This means to me that it does not matter any longer..

Hey, sorry to reply so late, I just recently discovered your question. Hope I can still help you but I need a little more information to be able to do that. What kind of versions of ROS are you using? And are you using the same version on all hosts? Any visible exceptions on the console? Can you post some output from ROS, a good start would be

• "rostopic list" before the start of mavlink and before and after starting ARNI
• "rosparam get /" before and after starting ARNI
• roswtf before and after starting ARNI
• rqt_graph before and after starting ARNI

Thanks for using ARNI, we're always eager to hear from anybody using it.

Hi, sorry to answer you such late, I haven't seen your question before. You can find those under arni_msgs but I think your problem is another. After downloading the package into your workspace you have to recompile it with catkin_make to generate the msg files. Then it will probably work. You can find more information on catkin here: http://wiki.ros.org/catkin/Tutorials I hope this helps.
