[ros-users] ROS support for Ubuntu Precise

[Tully Foote]

Patrick,

Our goal is as soon as possible.  There's no way to predict exactly.  It
depends on what patches need to be applied.  For example there's a
significant change in gtest packaging which breaks our usage of gtest.
 Each bug like this sets us back significantly due to tracking it down and
then finding a fix and rebuilding all packages with the fix.

To track progress see the debbuild status page:
