Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist We (Robotics section of Debian Science team) are packaging ROS (Robot OS: http://www.ros.org/) for Debian. ROS uses many packages already in Debian, but also has a set of core/toolchain/build-system packages which are not yet uploaded. This package is part of that ROS system.
Most of the packaging work is already done, and available at http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-science/packages/ros/ Package name : ros-rosinstall Version : 0.7.7 URL : http://www.ros.org/wiki/rosinstall License : BSD-3-clause Programming Lang: Python Description : Installer for Robot OS This package is part of Robot OS (ROS). The rosinstall package provides a Python API for interacting with a source code workspace as well as a group of command line tools. Rosinstall leverages the vcstools package for source control and stores its state in .rosinstall files. . Using rosinstall you can update several folders using a variety of SCMs (SVN, Mercurial, git, Bazaar) with just one command.
