initial version

Your error was probably caused by the fact that you had an out-of-date apt database, which caused apt-get to try and download old versions of the debians. Compare:

ros-indigo-moveit-setup-assistant_0.6.0-0trusty-20150308-0703-+0000_amd64.deb

with:

ros-indigo-moveit-setup-assistant_0.6.0-0trusty-20150125-0937-+0000_amd64.deb

The first file is a recent release (note the date: 2015-03-08), the second resulted in your 404 errors (again, date: 2015-01-25). The way the ROS package repository works is that older versions are deleted, so you cannot download them anymore. Trying to fetch old releases will cause HTTP 404 errors (as the files don't exist anymore).

By running sudo apt-get update, you update apt's database, and it will then download the correct versions of files.
