bugs in roslocate migration to new index #84

Closed tkruse closed 11 years ago

tkruse commented 11 years ago

Bug1: for old distros (<= fuerte), rosdistro raises RuntimeError, this needs to be caught. E.g.:

roslocate describe ros_comm --distro fuerte
...
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/rosdistro/__init__.py", line 141, in get_release_cache
    raise RuntimeError("Unknown release: '{0}'".format(dist_name))

RuntimeError: Unknown release: 'fuerte'

Also for wet metapackages, roslocate info returns type "package", not "metapackage". E.g.: 

roslocate describe ros_comm --distro groovy
Type: package
...
