[ros-users] clarifying package installation 'best practices'?

[Ugo Cupcic]

Hi all,

Regarding ansible, we also have a bunch of roles here :
github.com/shadow-robot/sr-build-tools.

It might be a good idea to synchronise efforts on this kind of
configuration tools if there is enough interest from the community?

Cheers,

Ugo
