2019-12-16 08:25:22 -0500 marked best answer hector_slam Install Question

Sorry for asking a simple question but I am new to using ROS and Linux and want to make sure that I install the package correctly to use. I am wanting to install hector_slam to use with a Tim 561 LiDAR, I already have ROS and sick_scan installed and working to be able to visualize the LiDAR data. After reading through the hector_slam documentation I found a line to use for installing the package shown bellow.

sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-hector-slam

When using this to install the package do I need to be within a specific working directory like the catkin work space I have made for my project? Also I have Kinetic not indigo so I should replace that with the word kinetic to install the correct version right?

2019-12-08 02:21:52 -0500 marked best answer ROS kinetic Instulation Error (Ubuntu 16.04 LTS)

I am new to ROS and Ubuntu so apologies for asking a question on probably a simple fix. I am trying to install the ROS full Desktop with the following command on a dual booted dell precision 5520 with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

sudo apt-get install ros-kinetic-desktop-full

After running this command I get the following end message.

53 upgraded, 838 newly installed, 0 to remove and 244 not upgraded. Need to get 529 MB/530 MB of archives. After this operation, 2,453 MB of additional disk space will be used. Do you want to continue? [Y/n]

What do i need to do in order to fix the issue?

If i say yes will this mess anything up?
