We are still building debs for 11.10 -- these issues will get worked out.

Also, for future note, it is probably more helpful to note that you have a problem with "geometry" not "rosserial". rosserial is one of many, many packages that depend on geometry, but the rosserial developers are not going to be able to help you fix a problem with geometry building.

If you want to temporarily build rosserial on a broken ROS install, you could do the following:

  1. Do a source checkout of rosserial (using hg).
  2. Edit rosserial_arduino/CMakeLists.txt and rosserial_arduino/manifest.xml to remove references to geometry_msgs.
  3. Run "make" in that local folder (make sure rosserial is on your ROS package path).

Note that none of the examples that use geometry_msgs will work.
