Failing to create catkin workspace

edit

Hey,

I tried to go through this tutorial Tutorial: Using a URDF in Gazebo but I failed in the first steps. I gitcloned the RRbot stuff and tried catkin_make. But no success. After this i tried to set up a complete new catkin workspace, just to make sure there is no error in my catkin workspace. But also with a new and plain catkin workspace it didnt work.

The error i get is here:

Maybe someone of you can help me. Im using ROS-indigo and Gazebo 2.2

Edit#1: Workspace structure

my workspace looks something like this:

catkin_ws
  build
  devel
  install
  src
    Package A
      (In almost every Package)
      include
      launch
      src
      worlds
      CMakeLists.txt
      package.xml
    Package B
    Package ....
    CMakeLists.txt
  RemoteSystemTempFiles

Sry for the bad formatting

Edit#2: Creating an empty workspace

schultza@Andreas:~$ source /opt/ros/indigo/setup.bash
schultza@Andreas:~$ mkdir -p ~/catkin_ws2/src
schultza@Andreas:~$ cd ~/catkin_ws2/src/
schultza@Andreas:~/catkin_ws2/src$ catkin_init_workspace
