[ros-users] Building boost gets stuck while installing turtlesim

[Isao Isaac Saito]

Self update. After waiting 30 minutes without any progress at least on
the prompt, installation moved forward and gets done. It took 80
minutes including a termination+redo.
Thank you if someone started working over this.

Now I'm stuck at the following command and looks like it's related to
macports, I might leave mac for now and start using ubuntu.

$ rosdep install turtle_teleop
