Handle unsupported OS #271

Open jihoonl opened 9 years ago

While following up https://github.com/turtlebot/turtlebot/issues/186#issuecomment-69966982,

We have found that there may be unsupported OS type in ROS(or undetectable by rospkg.OsDetect).

In this case, rapp manager crashes in rappmanager._set_platform_info where is a critical place to use rapp manager.

Thus, we have to handle unsupported os in some ways. Here is potential approach to fix the issue.

os codename override by ros param
use rospkg.OsDetect if ros param is not presented.
Either is available, gives an error and terminates rapp manager.
