If you've had the package in your workspace in the past, it's possible that the folder or some parts of it where still in the build and devel folders of your workspace, which can confuse the package directory lookup, causing it to look in your workspace for the package executable instead of in the system installation.

From here, there are two ways to proceed:

  • Remove the package from your workspace, delete your build and devel folders to make sure there aren't any old package artifacts around, and then reinstall it from apt
  • Install the missing dependencies and build it from source. rosdep install should be able to do this for you.
