I've experienced such a thing like this. I installed rviz from the source and also I clone the rviz repository from the git to my catkin workspace source folder. And I make catkin_make. After that I simply delete the rviz from the workspace but after that the catkin_make didn't clean the rviz completely from the workspace. When I make catkin_make for packages who has rviz dependency, catkin_make gave me error. Infact I had the rviz that I installed from the source(with apt-get install) on my computer. the problem is this catkin_make was searching my catkin workspace.

As a solution, instead of creating a new catkin workspace from scratch, I searched my workspace and I deleted the rviz folders. And when I do catkin_make after that, It worked.
