[ros-users] question about rosinstall

[Huan Liu]

Dear fellow ROS users,

When I try to use rosinstall to check out code with an overlay file,
rosinstall complains about No ROS_ROOT defined, while the environment
variable has been properly set up.

I am looking at the following tutorial:
http://www.ros.org/wiki/rosinstall/NewVersion

I suspect that I haven't added the rosinstall layout to the directory
where I check out the code. However, when I try to add a rosinstall
layout, it complains about maximum recursion depth exceeded.

I'm running ROS 1.1.14. Thanks for your help!

Huan
