Binary Installation on Ubuntu

Fortress binaries are provided for Ubuntu Bionic, Focal and Jammy. All of the Fortress binaries are hosted in the osrfoundation repository. To install all of them, the metapackage ignition-fortress can be installed.

First install some necessary tools:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install lsb-release gnupg

Then install Ignition Fortress:

sudo curl https://packages.osrfoundation.org/gazebo.gpg --output /usr/share/keyrings/pkgs-osrf-archive-keyring.gpg
echo "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/pkgs-osrf-archive-keyring.gpg] http://packages.osrfoundation.org/gazebo/ubuntu-stable $(lsb_release -cs) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gazebo-stable.list > /dev/null
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ignition-fortress

All libraries should be ready to use and the ign gazebo app ready to be executed.

Uninstalling binary install

If you need to uninstall Ignition or switch to a source-based install once you have already installed the library from binaries, run the following command:

sudo apt remove ignition-fortress && sudo apt autoremove
