I download ROS Noetic but when I paste this line on Terminal, it can't found.
$ sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-ar-track-alvar
How can I solve this problem?
As I know, this package is avaliable for Noetic but I can't install it.
That command is trying to install the package for Indigo, not Noetic. Make sure your package names include the ROS distro you’re targeting.
sudo apt install ros-noetic-ar-track-alvar
Edit based on comment: It does appear there is a noetic build for this package, but it doesn't look like it's officially tracked on the ROS wiki. If it isn't supplied via apt you will need to build the package from source. The Noetic source can be found here on GitHub.

While deploying docker using puppet, I encounter an interesting issue.
docker installs fine if I use: version => latest
docker install fails if I use: version => '20.10.16'
My setup is as follows:
puppet master is Ubuntu 20.04.
puppet agent is Ubuntu 22.04 (on which I am trying to install docker).
I believe puppet docker module supports this setup.
The version lines I tried:
version => '20.10.16'
version => '20.10.16~3-0~ubuntu'
version => '20.10.16~3-0~ubuntu-jammy'
The error I get when I specify a specific version is as follows:
Error: Could not update: Execution of '/usr/bin/apt-get -q -y -o DPkg::Options::=--force-confold --force-yes install docker-ce=20.10.16' returned 100: Reading package lists...
Building dependency tree...
Reading state information...
Package docker-ce is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
docker-ce-cli
Anyone has any idea what can be done so that it installs specific version of docker instead of the latest one?
When running apt-cache madison docker-ce it appears that the version number is 5:20.10.16~3-0~ubuntu-jammy.
Running apt install docker-ce=20.10.16~3-0~ubuntu-jammy returns the same error as yours, but apt install docker-ce=5:20.10.16~3-0~ubuntu-jammy works.
I suggest trying with the 5: in front of the version number.
Some sites say OpenCV could be installed on RHEL from the system repository:
sudo yum install opencv opencv-devel opencv-python
I run RHEL UBI container redhat/ubi8 and tried to install OpenCV - package is not found.
Then I install EPEL repos from https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm, same result. The only opencv-related package is libfreenect-opencv.
I understand I could compile OpenCV from the scratch, but I'd like to go with already compiled package.
You need to enable CodeReady Linux Builder Repository on RHEL 8:
subscription-manager repos --enable codeready-builder-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms
I have a Dockerfile that uses ruby:2.7.1-alpine base image. I have a gem that needs libcurl, which I am having troubles installing on the Alpine image. I saw a solution on a GitHub issue associate with the aforementioned gem. But that solution assumes a Debian-based OS, which mentions installing libcurl4-openssl-dev. What I need is the equivalent of this package on Alpine.
The equivalent package is curl-dev. Run:
apk add curl-dev

I tried following this guide to install ROS, but even after adding ROS source.list and its key
sudo apt install ros-melodic-desktop-full
gave error.
E: Unable to locate package ros-melodic-desktop-full
Then I ran this command
sudo apt search ros
to see if any such package exists. I couldn't find ros-melodic-desktop-full but I found another similar package ros-desktop-full.
So I installed it instead. The installation went smooth without giving any errors.
Next step in the guide is to set-up ROS environment variable, but I have no such directory
/opt/ros
So how do I setup the environment variable?
P.S.
I also installed some tools and dependencies with this command
sudo apt install python3-rosdep python3-rosinstall python3-rosinstall-generator python3-wstool build-essential
and initialized rosdep
sudo rosdep init
rosdep update
The ros-desktop-full package you installed is part of the official Ubuntu release.
ROS Melodic (and in the future, Noetic) is published by the OSRF in a separate repository (packages.ros.org). These packages install to /opt/ros/. However, some ROS packages have also been ported to Debian, which is how they found their way to Ubuntu (which derives from Debian).
The Debian packages are fully functional, but they do not install to /opt/ros. Instead, everything is integrated in the operating system itself. This means that you need to set up your personal workspace slightly differently.
Given that most tutorials assume that you use the OSRF packages, I suggest you either wait for the Noetic release (scheduled for the end of May 2020), then install ros-noetic-desktop-full, or downgrade to Ubuntu 18.04 LTS to use ROS Melodic.
From the documentation here, melodic is only supported on Ubuntu 18.04. The ROS version targeting Focal (20.04) is Noetic, but that one has not been released yet (see Distributions). I'm not sure what ROS version Ubuntu packages (the ros-desktop-full one you installed), but I was not successful in using it.
If you really do want to use Ubuntu 20.04, then I think your best option currently is to compile from source. Last time I checked the precompiled debs for Noetic are not yet available at http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu (you can track release progress at github issue 21513). No idea if compiling Noetic from source is easy or hard, but I was able to compile ROS2 foxy from source without too much trouble though.
I can compile and install ROS package in the catkin workspace in ROS. How can I export the package in catkin workspace to a .deb file so I can install and use it on the other machines?
My ROS version is ROS Indigo and OS version is Ubuntu 14.04
Here is a step-by-step guide of doing it using ROS bloom:
Navigate to your package path
cd /path/to/package
Use ROS bloom to create the .deb file
bloom-generate rosdebian --os-name ubuntu --ros-distro kinetic fakeroot debian/rules binary
* If your ROS distribution is different from Kinetic, replace kinetic with your distribution
Copy the .deb file to the other machine, and in its folder type
sudo dpkg -i packagename.deb
this will install the package on that machine, and you are now able to use it like any other ROS package
1 - I think the ROS build farm would be a good starting point and solution for that. You cannot create a .deb as you said but, you can create a source closed ROS packages
The ROS build farm is also designed to enable deploying a custom build farm. This can be useful to release closed-source packages, build for platforms and architectures not provided by the official ROS build farm, and/or customize any part of the process to specific needs.
Take a look here for a better overview.
2 - Another approach would be using a CMake install. Although this will require the same architecture and ROS Distro between both your platforms and a location that can be the same for both machines.
Define a CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX for some location like: /opt/your_ros_install.
Run sudo make install to allow installing there.
Copy the install directory from machine A to machine B, using scp or tar or some other technique.
To run your installed ROS packages on either machine: source /opt/your_ros_install/setup.bash.
Take a look at this post: Generate .deb from ROS package
Use the following commands:
path-of-your-package$ bloom-generate rosdebian --os-name ubuntu --ros-distro kinetic
$fakeroot debian/rules binary
