[ros-users] Installing ROS on Ubuntu 11.10

[Lynn Gilbert]

Hello Everyone,

I have moved to Ubuntu 11.10 and from what I understand, there are 
currently no packages in the ROS repository that supports this new 
version. When can we expect to see the new packages available to the ROS 
community?

I do have ROS Electric installed right now and receive the following 
errors when I run:

lynn at lynn-ThinkPad-T520:~/ros_workspace$ rosmake --rosdep-install 
hector_mapping
[ rosmake ] Packages requested are: ['hector_mapping']
[ rosmake ] Logging to 
directory/home/lynn/.ros/rosmake/rosmake_output-20111018-163632

Failed to find rosdep eigen for package hector_mapping on OS:ubuntu 
version:oneiric
Failed to find rosdep boost for package hector_mapping on OS:ubuntu

[ rosmake ] rosdep install failed: Rosdep install failed

Any ideas on how I can proceed?
