I can apt-get ros-fuerte-rx fine, however when doing a completely source
based catkin build using troy's
rosinstall<http://people.willowgarage.com/straszheim/catkin-dev/catkin/walkthrough.html>
for
a catkin build, it fails when rx tries to find the ros swig binary. I have
to source the /opt/ros/fuerte setup.bash I think for it to be found
(haven't checked thoroughly sorry).

I'm trying to go through the deb building process - we're interested in
getting Yujin's closed stacks .deb'd (i.e. make my life simpler). I'm
guessing the process is via the method outlined here
https://github.com/willowgarage/catkin/blob/master/doc/catkin-release.rst.
Right now I'm testing with qt_ros/qt_tutorials which have been catinized
and compile against the rosinstalled sources (i.e. following the
walkthrough<https://github.com/willowgarage/catkin/blob/master/doc/walkthrough.rst>).
The
process goes well until it actually hits the cmake step in the build stage,
i.e. when I do
git buildpackage -uc -us --git-ignore-branch --git-ignore-new # on
lucid, omit --git-ignore-new
It is fine until it hits the add_service_files macro in qt_tutorials (see
error below). Which probably means I haven't got the environment set up
properly. I've just been stepping into the environment via
/opt/ros/fuerte/env.sh for this. What's the correct way to set it up to
generate release builds like you have at the repos above? Or should I hold
off on this for a bit?
I wonder if there's a better place to move this discussion too.
Cheers,
Daniel.

Cross compiling working great (arm shared + mingw static compiles) with
