Ok so I was able to solve the problem.

First I did sudo apt-get update and I saw that I was getting the following message:

W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/ precise/partner i386 Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/archive.canonical.com_ubuntu_dists_precise_partner_binary-i386_Packages)

To resolve this I went to `Synaptic Package Manager-> Settings -> Repositories -> Other Software' and unchecked "Canonical Partners - Added by software center".

Then did sudo apt-get update again. This solved the above problem.

Then, I went to the following file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros-latest.list and saw that the url was commented out. I uncommented the following line deb http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu precise main and ran sudo apt-get update again.

After this point I was able to install all of the dependencies which are needed for roboearth and via apt-get and was able to successfully make roboearth with rosmake roboearth
