Hi, in my experience, you can use the binary builds from ros for Ubuntu precise also in trusty - yust to be sure that you have repos from Ubuntu precise in your sources.list for the right boost version etc. It can be that you have a little fun with apt, but in general it should work. I had even upgraded precise on which hydro is installed, to trusty with this trick without removing ros.
