Install ROS Kinetic on MacOS
I'm installing ROS Kinetic on MacOS Sierra 10.12.6 under a seperate environment under Python Anaconda distribution.
Here is my python version(my seperate python environment in Anaconda is called "ros-kinetic"):
(ros-kinetic) jizhe@jizhedeMacBook-Pro ~/ros_catkin_ws python --version
Python 3.6.4 :: Anaconda, Inc.
I followed the guide: http://wiki.ros.org/kinetic/Installat... .
When I execute the rosdep install
command, I got the following error:
(ros-kinetic) jizhe@jizhedeMacBook-Pro ~/ros_catkin_ws rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro kinetic -y
ERROR: the following packages/stacks could not have their rosdep keys resolved
to system dependencies:
actionlib: No definition of [python-wxtools] for OS [osx]
catkin: No definition of [google-mock] for OS [osx]
roslisp: No definition of [google-mock] for OS [osx]
Obviously, there is something wrong with the package python-wxtools
and google-mock
.
I've already install the wxpython via brew install wxpython
, and here is the wxpython
info:
(ros-kinetic) jizhe@jizhedeMacBook-Pro ~/ros_catkin_ws brew info wxpython
wxpython: stable 3.0.2.0 (bottled)

==> Dependencies
Required: wxmac ✔
==> Caveats
Python modules have been installed and Homebrew's site-packages is not
in your Python sys.path, so you will not be able to import the modules
this formula installed. If you plan to develop with these modules,
please run:
mkdir -p /Users/jizhe/Library/Python/2.7/lib/python/site-packages
echo 'import site; site.addsitedir("/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages")' >> /Users/jizhe/Library/Python/2.7/lib/python/site-packages/homebrew.pth
And I've already run the command:
$ mkdir -p ~/Library/Python/2.7/lib/python/site-packages
$ echo "$(brew --prefix)/lib/python2.7/site-packages" >> ~/Library/Python/2.7/lib/python/site-packages/homebrew.pth
So, what's wrong with the package google-mock
and python-wxtools
, how can I solve this problem?
I also had the same problem with google-mock, you'll have more information here: https://github.com/mikepurvis/ros-ins...
@ejalaa12, I just add --skip-keys to skip google mock and python-wxtools. For python-wxtools, I'm very sure I've already installed it. For google mock, I found the package yaml-cpp will install gtest later. However, the process of installation is not finished yet. Thanks for your reply.
