[ros-users] Dependency conflict in ROS Indigo on Ubuntu 14.04 due to libsdformat

[Dirk Thomas]

Hi Egbert,

there is no ROS packaged sdformat in Indigo anymore.
This has been resolved weeks ago (https://github.com/ros/rosdistro/issues/4633).

You might still have the package "ros-indigo-sdformat" installed which
does not exist in the repos anymore.
You want want to try removing that from your system - then the
sdformat packages from the Ubuntu repo should install fine.

Cheers,
- Dirk
