Re: [ros-users] How to update a stack to the newest version

Hi,

the intended way to update all stacks is running the rosinstall script
on a directory that already contains a ros installation, as Miguel
suggested. You normally can leave out the rosinstall file since the
script is smart enough to use this.rosinstall in your ros directory.

I'm not sure if it is a good idea to just update one stack and leave
the others. There might be cross-dependencies on specific versions
(e.g. pcl depends on a recent version of dynamic_reconfigure which is
in the stack driver_common).

Don't forget to rosmake all your packages after the update.
