I try to follow this tutorial to install pr2 package: http://wiki.ros.org/Robots/PR2/indigo My machine is Ubuntu 14.04 64bit (in Vmware) ROS is indigo
But I get this error:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done

Any idea about this?

As far as I can tell from status_page/ros_indigo_default.html?q=pr2_desktop, the pr2_desktop package has not been released into Indigo, which is why sudo apt-get .. is failing.
You might want to inquire about the status on the pr2_metapackages issue tracker.

+1 to this answer. Metapackages are no longer built but the child packages are so you can install the dependencies yourself or get someone to bundle them.

Have you setup your sources properly? Section 1.2 on the webpage you linked.

Thank you for your response. Yes. I did 1.2 and 1.3 and 1.4 (sudo apt-get update) This seems very simple. Why I still get the error? I have been working on this for a whole day...
