asctec@asctec-mastermind:~/fuerte_workspace/sandbox/beginner_tutorials$ roscore

They are different problem. In fact I have pip uninstall packages in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages and you can see my rospkg is now in /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages.

I usually see this when I haven't sourced the setup.bash for ROS.

Did you source the setup.bash for your workspace, or the setup.bash in /opt/ros ? (note that you have to source the setup.bash every time you open a new terminal, or you can add it to your .bashrc)

I have source the setup, but still have such problem
