Can not install rosinstall because of python version conflict
Hello, I'm having troubles installing ROS fuerte on Ubuntu Lucid. I did the installation accordign to the standard installation instructions for fuerte on lucid. But when installing rosinstall (sudo apt-get install python-rosinstall) I get an error regarding python versions (>2.7 needed but 2.6.5-0ubuntu1 installed). I read that with Lucid python 2.6 is the standard version. I do not face any troubles while installing rosdep. What I'm doing wrong?
Thanks Johannes
Can you post the full apt error (gist.github.com)? It is likely that one of
rosinstall
's dependencies is now requiring py27.I'm having the same problem. There isn't much more to the error message. It's:
The following packages have unmet dependencies: python-rosinstall: Depends: python (>= 2.7) but 2.6.5-0ubuntu1 is to be installed E: Broken packages
