Hi Dino, great to get some feedback on the packages. Feel free to mail, when you find a problem. * Dino H. <oss@hllmnn.de> [2017-01-28 11:05]: > I installed ROS from the official Stretch sources.

Good point, we still need more documentation on this (help welcome). Actually, you don't need a setup.bash, as long as you only want to use packages installed on the system level. As we are installing into /usr, everything should just work and if you want to develop in a catkin workspace, catkin_make and alike will create one for you. If you follow the tutorial on wiki.ros.org, simply try the next command if one fails ;). > There are some related scripts in /etc/catkin/profile.d, but how are those > invoked? AFAIR they are used from catkin internally. Cheers Jochen
