Hi everyone!
I'm trying to start SITL on Linux Mint to connect it to Mission Planner on Windows. The thing is that I can connect it when I'm simulating with ArduPlane but not when I'm with ArduCopter, in fact it doesn't even start. I would be very grateful if someone helped me, please.
The output error is the following one:

I have SITL running in Mint now, though I had a problem like yours at first. Mint's package manager sometimes lacks packages that are available in Ubuntu. I had to use this procedure (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12991401/how-to-install-gcc-4-7-...) to install the correct compiler. I also ran "apt-get upgrade" to bring the rest of the packages up to date. I recommend that you verify that all of the packages required for SITL were actually installed and are upgraded to the current versions. Then reboot just in case.
My guess, either:
a) you have outdated source in /tmp it is trying to compile. I find clean does not get rid of this.
b) You have the wrong tools versions installed (I am running on ubuntu and ran the setup script and this all works fine for me).
c) You have some github problems. Be worth trying a stable branch just to verify.
