catkin make partially not found

Hi folks, I have a pretty new installation of ubuntu 14.04.1 and ros indigo. After a reboot, due to my pc crashing, catkin_make and ros commands were "gone".

My .bashrc contains the string

source /opt/ros/indigo/setup.bash

to avoid typing it in every given shell. If it is executed when a new terminal is opened, several commands are still missing.

Same issue if I reload the bash by

source .bashrc

Instead, if I enter by hand the command

source /opt/ros/indigo/setup.bash

then it works. It seems like .bashrc is "ignoring" the command, which is rather strange.

Do you have any idea about possible solutions?

Thanks,

Can you please post the error messages that appear when you open a new terminal?

This is the problem, there are no message errors. Everything is properly set up, still some ros commands are not found (unless I type again source /opt/ros/indigo/setup.bash)

Have you tried sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-rosbash?
