Installation of ROS - urgent
Hi,
we face this problem since about one year and in every Ubuntu installation, it is alway the same (trying Xubuntu, Linux Mint ...):
Persistent problem updating (installing) ROS (Groovy or Hydro):
Using "sudo apt-get upgrade" results ALWAYS in:
Fetched 83.4 MB in 8min 33s (163 kB/s)
Failed to fetch http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu/po... Connection failed
E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?
--> It is NOT a connection problem
I WAS NEVER ABLE TO INSTALL ROS IN A QUIET MODE!!!! I had to fetch manually from http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu/po...
The problem is in the divergence of the real name of a file and the name in the get list.
That's interesting... I've done Hydro installation on Ubuntu 12.04 32b, and 13.04 64b without facing such problem... It looks like it comes from your network configuration, maybe a caching or filtering proxy, or from your GNU/Linux setup, maybe locales... Anything unusual on your setup ?
I'm able to fetch the file you linked to without problems. Are you able to fetch it through your browser or through wget on the machine you're trying to install linux on?
