Packages for common geometric calculations including the ROS transform library, "tf". Also includes ROS bindings for "bullet" physics engine and "kdl" kinematics/dynamics package.
I tried to import tf_conversions, but got the following error:

I tried to build orocos-kdl with python-orocos-kdl from source, but it doesn't work if I also have another version installed from ros-orocos-kdl (I can only build and install when ros-orocos-kdl isn't installed).
