Revision history [back]

The problem is that kobuki_description apparently is not in your ROS_PACKAGE_PATH of your indigo-workspace. You'd get the exact same error if this was the case in hydro, so this isn't really indigo-specific.

Running

sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-kobuki

should fix the problem. Also see this related Q/A: http://answers.ros.org/question/190137/problem-of-installing-kobuki-in-turtlebot-installation-indigo/
