Hi,

I have Debian and Unbuntu is just not going to happen for me, so am 
doing the svn install and compile method for cturtle and the first 
problem was no rosinstall.

I tried easy_install but that just err'd
easy_install
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/usr/bin/easy_install", line 9, in <module>
     load_entry_point('distribute==0.6.14', 'console_scripts', 
'easy_install')()
   File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 305, in 
load_entry_point
     return get_distribution(dist).load_entry_point(group, name)
   File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 2244, 
in load_entry_point
     return ep.load()
   File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 1954, 
in load
     entry = __import__(self.module_name, globals(),globals(), 
['__name__'])
ValueError: bad marshal data


Anyway, luckily I had a rosinstall laying around and used that 
successfully.

I am doing a blog so others can have a go with ROS to and the 
instructions will not be using the easy_install method to get going 
(tried pip too). Hence asking do you have a direct perm link for 
rosinstall?
