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-rospkg Version : 1.0.38 URL : http://www.ros.org/wiki/rospkg License : BSD-3-clause Programming Lang: Python Description : Robot OS package library This package is part of Robot OS (ROS). It is a library for retrieving information about ROS packages and stacks. The rospkg Python module provides basic utilities for querying information about ROS packages, stacks, and distributions. There are several basic APIs: ROS environment, RosPack/RosStack, OS detection, and distributions.
