boxturtle tutorials installation error

Question

I've installed boxturtle on ubuntu 10.04 and I'm receiving the following error when attempting to install the tutorials:

"ERROR: Failed to install tree 'ros_tutorials' using command: svn co https://code.ros.org/svn/ros/stacks/ros_tutorials/branches/boxturtle /home/user/ros-tutorials/ros-tuturials Perhaps there is another installation in the way, or there are permissions issues."

Is there a workaround for this or is there a permission I'm missing? My current permissions for this folder are: drwxr-xr-x

Please note, boxturtle is really old. The current release is Diamondback, and Eturtle is just around the corner.

Answer 1

Does the folder already exist? I.e. is it "in the way"?

Then try removing it first. If the permissions are for the parent, it should work.
