Package Summary
Documented
Protobuf
- Author: Google
- License: BSD
- Source: hg https://kforge.ros.org/gazebo/protobuf (branch: default)
Overview
This ROS-wrapped protobuf is here simply because some of the older Linux distros (e.g. Ubuntu Lucid) provides a version of protobuf that is older than 2.3.0; while some of its dependents need protobuf-2.3.0 or newer to work properly (e.g. gazebo).

Roadmap
This stack will probably cease to exist after Fuerte, as ROS moves on to newer versions of Ubuntu. Users will be able to directly use the system dependency rather than the ROS-wrapped protobuf library.
