2016-04-06 20:38:24 -0500 answered a question Unable to install libgazebo5 in debian Jessie. Please help

"There is an effort for migrating ROS packages to Debian which probably can help you to bring gazebo binaries to jessie. https://wiki.debian.org/DebianScience... Check for the http://sir.upc.edu/debian-robotics jessie-robotics mainwhich is managed by Leo Palomo-Avellanade who works in debian-science and uses ROS."

I found answer in another thread in github. I hope this helps others having similar issue.

2015-12-22 03:50:25 -0500 commented question Unable to install libgazebo5 in debian Jessie. Please help

Can you please explain what that means ? I was of the impression that I am using libgazebo package built for ubuntu vivid.

2015-12-21 05:50:02 -0500 asked a question Unable to install libgazebo5 in debian Jessie. Please help

Dear all, I am not able to install libgazebo5 package in my Debian Jessie system. I read that this package is required for installing gazebo_ros package(ROS jade has a dependency on this).

The package is shown in my synaptic package manager. However, when I try to install it I get the following error.

"libgazebo5: Package libgazebo5 has no available version, but exists in the database. This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and never uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents of sources.list"

Can someone please help me with this issue. All I can understand from this error is that the package libgazebo5 is not there in the ubuntu vivid distribution(I am using ros packages build for vivid distribution as mentioned here).

Thank you in advance.

Solved this issue. I had to install libpcl-dev package. After installing it the issue was resolved.

2015-12-18 17:51:57 -0500 asked a question I am trying to install ROS Jade from source in debian jessie. I get the following error "Failed to process package 'pcl_conversions'"

I read somewhere that ros has its own version of PCL which it downloads and install. Now the error I get is following:

By not providing "FindPCL.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
  asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "PCL", but
  CMake did not find one.
  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "PCL" with any of
  the following names:

    PCLConfig.cmake
    pcl-config.cmake

As far as I know this means that the package PCL doesn't exists. This makes not much sense to me as ROS must have downloaded and installed it. I am stuck at this point.

Any help would be really appreciated.

Thank you

2015-12-18 14:17:56 -0500 answered a question Hello. I have been trying to install ros in debian jessie and I remain unsuccessful. I am not able to run the "sudo -E apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net:80 --recv-key 0xB01FA116". Can you please help me ?

That was a brilliant suggestion. Thanks a lot. It worked :)

So as suggested in comments, I did ping "pool.sks-keyservers.net". I got the IP address from the command and used it in the command as follows "sudo -E apt-key adv --keyserver 1xx.2xx.1.8 --recv-key 0xB01FA116".

Hope this helps anyone who has similar issues

Cheers

It gives me an error "Host not found" when I run it. I also tried running the command without the port number but to no vain. In one post I read that it would help to rerun the command after sometime. But it has been 2 days and I am nowhere able to run this command. Can you please help me ? Is there a workaround for this problem ? Thank you
