Please show us the output of ls -al $HOME/.ros.
It's (very) likely that you've run roslaunch with sudo at some point in the past, which causes problems with access permissions for the $HOME/.ros directory.

Please show us the output of ls -al $HOME/.ros.
It's (very) likely that you've run roslaunch with sudo at some point in the past, which causes problems with access permissions for the $HOME/.ros directory.
Edit:
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 lis 23 19:43 .
as you can see from this, your $HOME/.ros is owned by root. That is why you receive permissions errors.
This should fix it:
sudo chown $USER: -R $HOME/.ros
This is one of the reasons never to run roslaunch (or rosrun) with sudo or as the root user.
