error in rosdep initialization

edit

First, you should remove the /etc/ros/rosdep/sources.list.d/20-default.list; and then do this ''sudo rosdep init''. I work it out, you can try it.

Hello! I have found the reason:

My problem appeared after proxy setup, so I was looking into the problem.

In my environment I had "https_proxy" and "HTTPS_PROXY" declared with an empty string. All the tools, apt, wget, curl works fine with this, but rosdep init AND rosdep update fails (version 0.11.4 here)

So you just have to unset these, and voila...

Manually creating each file and pointing to them using file:// and their path instead of the web URL as tfoote suggested has solved this problem but hasn't improved my situation much.

If you just open the raw github link that it returns in your error code (i.e. //raw.github.com/ros/rosdistro/master/rosdep/sources.list.d/20-default.list) and copy its contents into a file called 20-default.list in /etc/ros/rosdep/sources.list.d/ then you should be able to skip the rosdep init step and proceed to rosdep update.

As you'll see after this you will have to indivdually do this for each link inside 20-default.list so I'm still stuck but slowly working through my problems. Hopefully this helps you and thank tfoote for suggesting the fix. If I manage to figure out anything else I'll let you know

The following works for me: 1. sudo su 2. sudo rosdep init 3. Ctrl-D 4. rosdep update In case this error:

ERROR: error loading sources list: (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ros...>

try rosdep update again
