Revision history [back]

I had the same problem. Found a solution in the end of tutorial you linked. You have to change the name of the packages

$ cd ~/ros_catkin_ws

$ rosinstall_generator ros_tutorials --rosdistro indigo --deps --wet-only --exclude roslisp --tar > indigo-custom_ros.rosinstall

Next, update the workspace with wstool:

$ wstool merge -t src indigo-custom_ros.rosinstall
$ wstool update -t src

it downloaded the package for me but you have to add ros_catkin_ws to workspace path

now I have a new problem when i am trying to run rosrun turtlesim turtlesim_node I am getting this message

[rosrun] Couldn't find executable named turtlesim_node below /home/pi/ros_catkin_ws/src/ros_tutorials/turtlesim
