Binary Installation

Everything works fine, following are some of the suggestions I have.

To download and store GPG keys (apt-key format is deprecated and hence trusted.gpg.d should be used instead):

wget -qO - http://packages.osrfoundation.org/gazebo.key | gpg --dearmor | sudo tee /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/gazebo-archive-keyring.gpg > /dev/null

Check available version of libgz-tools:

apt-cache search libgz-tools

Source Installation

Everything works including Documentation and Tests. The only issue I faced was installing Gazebo CMake from binary. I ended up testing gz-tools against Gazebo CMake built from source.

I suggest to overcome Gazebo CMake the upstream key-server is different and hence following should be included in documentation for its source installation:

echo "deb http://packages.osrfoundation.org/gazebo/ubuntu-stable `lsb_release -cs` main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gazebo-stable.list
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://p80.pool.sks-keyservers.net:80 --recv-keys D2486D2DD83DB69272AFE98867170598AF249743
sudo apt update
