Hi Mailing List,
I recently installed the pre-compiled ROS boxturtle
on a fresh Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty and couldn't start Rviz at first, so I wanted to
share my experiences if someone else might also have those problems (or to avoid
them in other versions).
First of all, Using boxturtle on Jaunty is probably
a bad idea by itself, considering all the newer versions, but we were bound to
those editions in this case.
After the installation of Jaunty I let apt-get
update everything it wanted, then installed the ros-boxturtle-base package,
everything without problems. Now when I tried to start Rviz, I got a very
quick
rosrun: line 35: 10326 Segmentation fault $exepath "$@"
I found a very similar error at https://code.ros.org/discuss/ros-users/browse_frm/thread/908/3292,
and recompiling rviz (after deleting the ROS_NOBUILD obviously) solved the
problem. So I suppose, that apt-get updated boost, too (I have to admit, I
didn't pay any attention to this), and that this somehow caused this
problem.
Best regards,
Ralf Stauder
