Installing toolchain on ubuntu

Hi all,

I am trying to install the orocos toolchain with the following "tutorial":

cd $HOME
mkdir orocos
cd orocos
tar -xjvf /path/to/orocos-toolchain-<version>.tar.bz2
cd orocos-toolchain-<version>
./bootstrap_toolchain
source ./env.sh
autoproj build

When running the autoproj build, I get the following error code:

rtt_typelib has no VCS, but is not checked out in
/home/dries/orocos/orocos-toolchain-2.6.0/rtt_typelib

Does anybody now what the problem is?

Many thanks!!

Kind Regards,

Dries Paulussen

Installing toolchain on ubuntu

Hi dries,

Seems you are trying to make *installation from zip/bz2/gz files* method.
The funniest thing when you make work around and get *rtt_typelib* you will
get another error for another missing folder, and so on.
Please can you try the make *installation using the easy way* and let me
know what you get, because I am also getting some errors and I am afraid if
I made mistake or not.

Below you can find the method and this it is the first one in this
link *http://www.orocos.org/wiki/orocos/toolchain/quick-start-linux
<http://www.orocos.org/wiki/orocos/toolchain/quick-start-linux>*

Description of the method:

1. Make sure that the Ruby interpreter (>=1.8.7) is installed on your
machine ruby --version
2. Create and "cd" into the directory in which you want to install the
toolchain
3. Save the Toolchain-2.6 bootstrap.sh script in the folder you just
created
4. In a console, run sh bootstrap.sh. This installs the toolchain-2.6
branch (latest fixes, stable).
5. Important: as the build tool tells you, you **must** load the
generated env.sh script at the end of the build !!!
6. source it in your current console (source ./env.sh)
7. also, add it to your .bashrc (append ".
/path/to/the/directory/env.sh" -- without the quotes -- at the end of your
.bashrc)

*How to do Step by Step:*

cd $HOME
mkdir orocos
cd orocos
mkdir orocos-toolchain
cd orocos-toolchain
wget -O bootstrap.sh
http://gitorious.org/orocos-toolchain/build/raw/toolchain-2.6:bootstrap.sh
sh bootstrap.sh
source env.sh

Thanks, and if I get any chance I will back to you too.
