All,

I think I am having a similar problem to Jack with my abb stack release.

My build fails on all archs ( ex: http://build.willowgarage.com/job/debbuild-build-debs-fuerte-precise-i386/489/console)

  [rosbuild] Building package abb_common
  Failed to invoke /opt/ros/fuerte/bin/rospack deps-manifests abb_common
  [rospack] Error: package/stack abb_common depends on non-existent package xacro

<snip>

I've removed the dependency on xacro from the stack manifest file (it's not needed), but it still fails.

I tried running 'rosdep update' from my local abb stack and then perform the release.  It still fails.

Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot, Vincent!

I got bit by that once before, because I had previously updated a
clone of the rosdistro rosdep repo and that (by then out-of-date)
version was still in my search path.

That mistake is easy to make and really tough to find.

I really appreciate the help.
