Frederic, <br>You can tell the ROS build system where to find log4cxx using the ROS_BINDEPS_PATH environment variable.  See <a href="http://www.ros.org/wiki/ROS/EnvironmentVariables#ROS_BINDEPS_PATH">http://www.ros.org/wiki/ROS/EnvironmentVariables#ROS_BINDEPS_PATH</a><br>

<br>
I am trying to install ROS from source under ubuntu hardy and I was<br>
wondering what it is all about with the log4cxx-10-stuff:<br>
<br>
As I have no root access to the system (as I am not the admin) and I<br>
have to build ros into an existing software tree. So I wonder why<br>
rosinstall is asking for root privileges for an from source build.<br>
Actually I already have the log4cxx version ROS is asking for installed<br>
and it is in my PKG_CONFIG_PATH but still ros want&#39;s to build it and<br>
install it with root priv...<br>
<br>
So the question is: How can I tell rosinstall to use my already<br>
installed deps such as log4cxx if not with the PKG_CONFIG_PATH or can I<br>
tell rosinstall to actually build log4cxx to a location I want ?<br>
<br>
Any help much appreciated.<br>
<br>
Greetings from Germany<br>
Frederic<br>
