Hello,

I am following these rosdep instructions for a package I have written under ROS Electric and Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneric) and I can't get it to work as advertised. For example, if I use the following rosdep.yaml file:

pyserial:
  ubuntu:
    11.10: |
      echo "Attempting to upgrade PySerial..."
      sudo pip install --upgrade pyserial

and run

$ rosdep install package_name

I get the following on the screen:

No installers found for rosdep [pyserial], OS version [oneiric].  Rule:
{{{
{'11.10': 'echo "Attempting to upgrade PySerial..."\nsudo pip install --upgrade pyserial\n'}
}}}

All required rosdeps installed successfully

So it appears that neither the echo command nor the pip install is actually being run. What am I doing wrong?
