I've been pretty successful with Fedora thus far. The only thing you need to compile is Gazebo; all of the required libraries are included in the repositories.
Here's how you install gazebo-0.10.0 0. Enable the rpmfusion repositories by going to rpmfusion.org and following the directions (if you need ffmpeg). 1. Install dependencies with Yum (bullet-devel, ogre-devel, ode-devel, ffmpeg-devel, player-devel etc.) 2. Unzip gazebo, create a build directory, and run ccmake 2a. Toggle to advanced mode in ccmake (press t), and change the following: - LIBAVCODEC_PATH =/usr/include/ffmpeg/libavcodec - LIBAVFORMAT_PATH=/usr/include/ffmpeg/libavformat - bullet_cflags, remove -DBT_USE_DOUBLE_PRECISION 3. Generate, make, make install. 4. Edit ~/.gazeborc in a text editor, and fill it with the following: <?xml version="1.0"?> <gazeborc> <gazeboPath>/usr/share/gazebo</gazeboPath> <ogrePath>/usr/lib/OGRE</ogrePath> </gazeborc> On 02/21/2010 02:58 PM, Nathan Adolph wrote: > Hello Gazebo users, > > After many hours trying to get Gazebo to compile/install/run on Ubuntu 9.10. > I have given up.
