Rosdep install failed #37

Closed LucFabresse closed 7 years ago

LucFabresse commented 7 years ago

Hi,

I followed the instructions in the doc to install cartographer_turtlebot on an unbuntu 16.04 + ROS Kinetic. Everything is fine until I get a rosdep error during the install:

$ echo ${ROS_DISTRO}
kinetic
$ rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro=${ROS_DISTRO} -y

ERROR: Rosdep experienced an error: rosdep data for [type] must be a dictionary
Please go to the rosdep page [1] and file a bug report with the stack trace below.
[1] : http://www.ros.org/wiki/rosdep

rosdep version: 0.11.5

Traceback (most recent call last): [...]

I tried on fresh 16.04+ROS Kinetic install and a fresh 14.04+ROS Indigo install and I got the same error.

Any hint?

Thanks,

​This sounds like some problem with rosdep. Did you file a bug? ​

LucFabresse commented 7 years ago

I did it here. Where else should I?

SirVer commented 7 years ago

Well, I suggest you do what the output says you to do:

Please go to the rosdep page [1] and file a bug report with the stack trace below. [1] : http://www.ros.org/wiki/rosdep

We can unfortunately not help with this, it is not a Cartographer, but a rosdep issue.

LucFabresse commented 7 years ago

ok, I will. Since I tried on a fresh install, I was more suspecting a problem in the way "cartographer" declares rosdep dependencies. But, I am probably wrong. Thanks
