NAME

       rosdep - rosdep command

SYNOPSIS

       rosdep <command> [options] [args]

DESCRIPTION

       The  rosdep  command  helps you install external dependencies in an OS-independent manner.
       For example, what Debian packages do you need in  order  to  get  the  OpenGL  headers  on
       Ubuntu?  How  about  OS  X? Fedora?  rosdep can answer this question for your platform and
       install the necessary package(s).

       For more information on rosdep, see http://ros.org/wiki/rosdep.

       Run "rosdep -h" or "rosdep <command> -h" to access the built-in tool documentation.
