[ros-users] Compiling ROS with Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty)

[Markus Eich]

I solved the issue.
Inorder to build ROS from source under Natty I just applied this 
modified patch (copied it to the opencv2 folder) and added the line

SVN_PATCH = pythontest.patch v4l_2.6.38.patch

to the Makefile.

The Opencv package now builds with Natty (but i guess not with older 
Ubuntu anymore ;-)

Make sure that libv4l-dev is installed.


Cheers,

Markus
