I recently attempted to install Orocos on top of a fresh install of Ubuntu
12.04 / ROS Fuerte according to the directions at
http://www.ros.org/wiki/orocos_toolchain_ros, and encountered the following
error when running `rosmake orocos_toolchain`:
cannot find required resource: common_rosdeps
It looks like common_rosdeps is a deprecated ROS stack. Commenting it out
from orocos_toolchain/stack.xml allowed me to compile successfully. Should
common_rosdeps be removed as a dependency?
Thank you,
Ian Sherman
orocos_toolchain dependency on common_rosdeps

Yes ! We'll pick it up in the next 2.6.0.x release for fuerte/groovy.
Thanks for reporting,
