2017-02-16 22:43:15 -0500 asked a question Status of Armhf Kenetic build for Jessie or other recommendation

I see that Kinetics does not list Jessie armhf as a ready release http://wiki.ros.org/kinetic/Installation

I note that the last question about this dates back to July. http://answers.ros.org/question/23946...

I am in the same situation as that poster, preferring the Jessie distribution on the BeagleBone Black. Can someone update the status? I guess if this Jessie armhf build has been pending since July I shouldn't hold my breath. I will only need modest ROS functionality to operate a panel with an ARM BBB board tethered to the vehicle with another ARM BBB board, over Ethernet. What do you advise? Building from source? Thanks!

As of today, if I have it right, UBuntu is better supported by ROS than Debian. What are the ramifications of Ubuntu (which available but as far as I understand is not a supported Beagle Bone distribution) - will I lose packages that support features of the BeageBone Black? Will I just have to install said packages?
Or are they likely to not run right on Ubuntu? We are trying to get to a distributed (two beagle bone black) configuration of panel and bot, and get some PWM motors to run. Is the OS choice likely to make any difference? Thanks so much for fielding this noob quesiton.
