I am making a package named "random", but i changed the name of this package to "third". It compiles but when I am trying to use roslaunch third brain.launch, the output is:

The brain.launch file is:

  <node name="brain" pkg="third" type="brain"/>

Have you tried to do another clean build? I.e. removing the build and devel folder and issuing another catkin_make? Also, it is important that the project name in the CMakeLists.txt is changed as well.

This looks odd. Does roslaunch work with other packages?

Yes, for the basic teleop tutorial of the Turtlebot it works!

You might have a problem with the random name. Try to remove that from everywhere and see if that fixes it.
