Hi all,

I'm trying to do the tutorials, but I'm running into lots of trouble with using anything rqt related. For example, in the tutorial on the rqt_console (http://www.ros.org/wiki/ROS/Tutorials/UsingRqtconsoleRoslaunch), I try rosrun rqt_console rqt_console and get the output below. I noticed I"m having a permission denied error, but I'm not sure how to get around that. Does anybody have any suggestions?

This sounds like a rosdep usage issue similar to this thread.
