Couple of quick questions.

From what I've seen, it looks like you can upgrade your stacks to catkin and build/release from source with catkin (releases have to be catkin enabled?). Alternatively if your stack is not yet catkin enabled, you can still apt-get or catkin build/install dependencies, then use the old 'in place' build via rosco and rosmake to compile your sources. Am I tuned in to the master plan correctly?

Rospack is now using your rewrite brian? i.e.

- hg:
    uri: 'https://kforge.ros.org/rosrelease/rospack'
    local-name: rospack

Rosinstall - if it's a permanent feature, it would be good if it detected the presence of catkin and made that symbolic link 'catkin/toplevel.cmake -> CMakeLists.txt'.

What is the situation with rx tools and ros-fuerte-swig-wx? I'm sudo apt-get'ing ubuntu's swig at the moment and that is sufficient to compile. I suspect this is in the works as mentioned on the migration page (it's a source rosdep?). 

I'm going to hit the cross-compiling over the next couple of days, so I'll hit the tracker with patches for you.

Cheers,
Daniel.

Another problem: setup.sh creates a broken $PATH entry for Fuerte:

export ROS_ROOT=/opt/ros/fuerte/share/ros
export PATH=$ROS_ROOT/bin:$PATH

There is no /opt/ros/fuerte/share/ros/bin. Apparently,
/opt/ros/fuerte/bin is the correct directory (but only for Fuerte).
