initial version

I've confirmed that catkin_create_pkg is included as part of the catkin_pkg python package (which you can install on Ubuntu through the python-catkin-pkg apt package). This means that if you have python-catkin-pkg installed, you should have catkin_create_pkg in /usr/bin

Since your version of catkin_create_pkg appears to be located in /usr/local/bin, I suspect you ALSO installed catkin_pkg though pip (or pip3) at some point. You should attempt to uninstall the version of catkin_pkg that was installed through pip:

pip uninstall catkin_pkg

(if you installed as root, you may need to run the unistall with sudo).

Note that this will not remove the version of catkin_pkg that was installed through apt (which is good)
