Re: [PlayerStage-Gazebo] gazebo configuration error: Gazebo requires ODE 0.039 or higher

[Yiannis G. <me...@le...>]

Hi, actually my problem has been solved after recoping the opcode files as Nate
suggested. something could have indeed been strangely lost on the way of
copying the ode0.5 and then back the 0.39 version, and i think it was the
libopcode.a library. simply what you need to do as described in the gazebo
readme file:

from ode home directory
Install OPCODE:
  $ cd OPCODE
  $ make
  $ mkdir <include path/opcode
    ex: mkdir /home/nate/local/include/opcode
  $ cp -r Ice *.h <include path>/opcode
    ex: cp -r Ice *.h /home/nate/local/include/opcode
  $ cp libopcode.a <library path>/lib


for futher instructions look at the file.

thanks,
Yiannis
There are two paths in life, I chose the middle one.
