 // Answer "y" or "Y" to the questions to proceed.

Using apt-get

Edit sources.list

Openrtm.org provides a package repository for use with apt-get. This is not included in the default package repository, so it must be added to the apt-get settings by hand. Add the following line to the file /etc/apt/sources.list (root permissions will be required):

 rpm http://www.openrtm.org/pub/Linux/Vine/apt x.x/$(ARCH) main

Replace x.x with your Vine Linux version. For example, use 5.0 for Vine 5.0:

 rpm http://www.openrtm.org/pub/Linux/Vine/apt 5.0/$(ARCH) main

Next, run these commands to install OpenRTM-aist.

 > su
 # apt-get update
 # apt-get install python
 # apt-get install omniORB-servers omniORBpy omniORBpy-devel omniORBpy-standarda
 # apt-get install OpenRTM-aist-Python OpenRTM-aist-Python-example

Answer y or Y to the questions to proceed. You can replace the apt-get command with the synaptic command.

Confirm installation

Check the install was successful using the following command.

 # rpm -qa | grep OpenRTM-aist-Python
