Linux 4.1.19- v7+

@nithin73: that is the version of your kernel. I think the output of lsb_release -a would be more helpful.

linux 8.0 .

Could you copy/paste the full output of that command? Would I be correct in assuming that you are running Debian 8.0?

yes,it is the same. I did download all the dependencies but I am unable download the tutorials and rqt mentioned above.

As far as I'm aware, the ROS build farm does not provide any binaries of ROS Indigo for Debian. Please provide a link to the install instructions that you followed.
