Fix missing opencv nonfree on ubuntu 14.04
Raw
opencv-non-free_ubuntu_14.04.md

I got:

  apt: command [sudo -H apt-get install -y libopencv-nonfree2.4] failed

When using rosdep

rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro=indigo -y

To solve it:

sudo add-apt-repository --yes ppa:xqms/opencv-nonfree
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libopencv-nonfree-dev

The rosdep key was opencv2-nonfree.

when there is some version of opencv already installed on your system, this solution might not be working.
prompting something like this:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libopencv-nonfree-dev : Depends: libopencv-features2d-dev (= 2.4.8+dfsg1-2ubuntu1xqms1~trusty1) but it is not going to be installed
                         Depends: libopencv-nonfree2.4 (= 2.4.8+dfsg1-2ubuntu1xqms1~trusty1) but it is not going to be installed
