-# Build a ROS Package - Method A
-<note important>This needs to be confirmed, but it should work...</note>
-## Base method
-When you need to build a separate package for ROS, instead of going throught all the steps like in the installation process, this should work
-    mkdir -p temp_dir/src
-    cd temp_dir/src
-    # Here, put your package_folder
-    cd ../
-    # Maybe you can try this to resolve the dependencies, but I'm reaaaaally not sure 'bout that...
-    #rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro hydro -y -r --os=debian:wheezy
-    sudo /opt/ros/hydro/env.sh catkin_make_isolated -DBUILD_BINARY_PACKAGE=ON -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/ros/hydro -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=lib --install --merge --install-space /opt/ros/hydro
-Aaaannd, that's it.
-## Ubuntu variant
-This procedure is useful for users who have installed ROS packages from the "official" repositories and want to update a package with a newer source, so it's mainly for Ubuntu users.
-The _difference_ is that sudo needs to source /opt/ros/hydro/setup.bash to launch catkin_make:
-    sudo bash
-    source /opt/ros/hydro/setup.bash
-    catkin_make_isolated -DBUILD_BINARY_PACKAGE=ON -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/ros/hydro -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=lib --install --merge --install-space /opt/ros/hydro
-    exit
-And it should be done!
-# Build a ROS Package - Method B
-This one doesn't directly rely on catkin, it doesn't manage dependencies though...
-    mkdir yourpackage
-    git clone --branch release/hydro/@package_name@/@package_branch@ @git_repository@ @package_name@
-    mkdir build
-    cd build
-    cmake ../@package_name@ -DSETUPTOOLS_DEB_LAYOUT=OFF -DCATKIN_BUILD_BINARY_PACKAGE=ON -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/ros/hydro -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=lib
-    make
-    sudo make install
-This method comes from the Archlinux PKGBUILDs, it works on Debian like this. There should be a way to checkinstall make install... and then we could (fully) package ROS for Debian in an easy, kinda automatic way...
