Dear Sacha, 

Once the init.rb has been updated, what has to be done ? I have launched a rebuild, but without success.

Hi,
I'm not familiar with the rock ros integration.
But my guess is that tools/rtt_transports/ros and tools/orogen_ros are 
obsolete, since they are part of orogen and orocos.rb now.

Maybe it is enough now to activate the support by adding
> Autoproj.env_set 'USE_ROS', true
to the init.rb

There is also a way to set the path to the ros installation by adding
> Autoproj.env_set 'ROS_ROOT', "path/to/ros_root"


Best regards
Sascha

Is it possible to avoid to access gitorious and launch the "standard" installation. With the current process, i never stipulate what flavor of ROS I am using and I don't know if it can have an influence.
