initial version

The tutorial has you install MoveIt from source. That means, it is local to that workspace. When you source that workspace (source /../../my_workspace/devel/setup.bash), the MoveIt version in there takes precedence over anything else. It should be able to locate any debians you have installed but it won't be aware of packages in other workspaces. (Unless you are using overlayed workspaces, which seems unlikely.)

You can also install the MoveIt debians (sudo apt install ros-melodic-moveit*). If you do not have MoveIt cloned into your current workspace, then the debian version will be used.

I don't know what to say about the "package not found" errors except it seems like your workspace is not sourced correctly. Did you build this Motoman stuff from source or install a debian with sudo apt ...?
