On the robots from PAL Robotics (e.g., the Tiago), they do something similar to what you're trying to achieve. They use a stable version of e.g. ROS Indigo, which is just a snapshot of the official packages and which is installed to `/opt/ros/indigo`. In addition, they have their own "distro" which they call "PAL Dubnium" that contains their own addon packages and which is installed to `/opt/pal/dubnium`, and which overlays the Indigo workspace. I've found [this presentation](https://static1.squarespace.com/static/51df34b1e4b08840dcfd2841/t/58235c62197aea6b50f60005/1478712432669/ROS-I-Conf2016-day1-04-marchionni.pdf) on Google, but sadly it doesn't contain many details. Perhaps you should contact the author (Luca Marchionni) directly. --- [Visit Topic](https://discourse.ros.org/t/ros-ourdistro-style-add-on-rosdistro/5205/4) or reply to this email to respond.
