ROS_PACKAGE_PATH=/opt/ros/indigo/share:/opt/ros/indigo/stacks

This indicates sourcing devel/setup.bash did not do as expected. ROS_PACKAGE_PATH must contain the path of your catkin workspace in order for your executables to be found by ROS.

I just added a passage to the create catkin workspace tutorial.

To make sure your workspace is properly overlayed by the setup script, make sure ROS_PACKAGE_PATH environment variable includes the directory you're in.

    $ echo $ROS_PACKAGE_PATH
    /home/youruser/catkin_ws/src:/opt/ros/indigo/share:/opt/ros/indigo/stacks

So in your case, I suggest to make sure you build and source properly. You can try by removing the built artifact (see Cleaning up) and run catkin_make again, and source the setup.
