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-angles Version : 1.9.10 URL : http://www.ros.org/wiki/angles License : BSD-3-clause Programming Lang: C++ Description : Robot OS set of simple math utilities to work with angles This package is part of Robot OS (ROS). The utilities cover simple things like normalizing an angle and conversion between degrees and radians. But even if you're trying to calculate things like the shortest angular distance between two joint space positions of your robot, but the joint motion is constrained by joint limits, this package is what you need. The code in this package is stable and well tested. There are no plans for major changes in the near future.
