[Ros-release] Releasing an existing third-party package with patches?

[Piyush]

I think you can try and adapt the instructions from Sec 2.6 here:
http://ros.org/wiki/bloom/Tutorials/ReleaseThirdParty. Not sure what the
best way to test the build is. I generally just pull in
release/rosdistro/foo in my local workspace and test "catkin_make_isolated
--install".
