just remove it and use the python-qt-bindings and libpcap keys that are already in :

It is yellow, and I got the cryptic message mentioned in my initial e-mail.

Thanks for explaining, Vincent.

So, you believe this is a rosdep problem?

I can't see any art_vehicle rosdeps (there are many) that are not
defined and available on Precise.

When I build it myself with Fuerte on Precise, "rosdep install
art_vehicle" works fine and everything compiles cleanly. When I ran
the pre-release tests it all worked.

Is it certain that the Debian build machines all have up-to-date
rosdep information?

I've been releasing this stack for two years now, on every ROS version
since C-turtle. With Fuerte, releases seem to have gotten more
difficult. Before, stack dependencies were easy to manage. Now most
dependencies are rosdeps. We need better tools for detecting and
diagnosing these kinds of problems.

What method should I use to avoid problems like this in the future?

Shouldn't the pre-release tests check for it?

Thanks for the help,
