Hi Willy,

you most likely first had a .rosinstall with this line:
- svn: {local-name: ros, uri: 'https://code.ros.org/svn/ros/stacks/ros/tags/ros-1.6.0'}

and now you have changed it to this line:
- svn: {local-name: ros}

Here is my .rosinstall, I don't think it is my problem

ard@ard-host:/opt/ros$ cat .rosinstall
# THIS IS A FILE WHICH IS MODIFIED BY rosinstall
# IT IS UNLIKELY YOU WANT TO EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND
# IF YOU WANT TO CHANGE THE ROS ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
# USE THE rosinstall TOOL INSTEAD.
# IF YOU CHANGE IT, USE rosinstall FOR THE CHANGES TO TAKE EFFECT

This is a lack of robustness in rosinstall. For each svn entry, a uri must be supplied. A better error message would be nice.

If you do not want to get updates from svn, also change the entry type to "other":
- other: {local-name: ros}

Version 0.5.17 of rosinstall has been released. You can update using the commands below. This release contains numerous bug fixes, as well as the experimental rosws being discussed in another thread on this mailing list.

Please try it out and provide feedback on the new rosws tool and new roslocate with distro specific options. .

Update commands:

sudo pip install -U rosinstall

or

sudo easy_install -U rosinstall
