Could that be the problem?

yes, the missing permissions are most likely the problem.

You still haven't answered how you copied 'the packages'.

You still haven't answered how you copied 'the packages'.

If you still have the packages on your 'other pc', I would recommend creating a tarbal of your source space, copying the archive and then extract it on the other machine. That way, permissions should be retained.

I did the sudo apt-get install... process because i thought that i have to do that.

no, that is not needed (but it should also not matter, as the pkgs in your workspace will/should take precedence over the ones installed in /opt/ros/$distro).

See #q252478 for the process that is typically used for building packages from sources. Note that instead of using git clone .., you copied the packages, but the idea is the same.

Edit:

sry. yes i copied them via usb stick. and i added the python link-files by hand, because they could not be copied by usb stick

Edit 2: final comment: you might also want to look into using a version control system, as besides keeping track of changes for you (which is really convenient when developing software), some of the hosted infrastructures (such as Github, BitBucket, etc) also solve the problem of how to make your source files accessible on other machines.

The rights of the [copied] files are different that they're on the previous pc. Could that be the problem?problem?
