Error while installing ROS Indigo from source on Ubuntu 16.04

edit

I wanted to install ROS to try it out for the first time. I usually don't work on Linux, so I created a partition on my Notebook and I installed Ubuntu 16.04. I realized there aren't yet any binary distribution of ROS for most of the operating system and, if I understood correctly, also for Ubuntu 16.04. So I decided to build ROS Indigo from source by following this guide: http://wiki.ros.org/indigo/Installati...

From what I understood I only have problems when I execute the following command:

    ./src/catkin/bin/catkin_make_isolated --install -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release

i.e. when it installs all dependencies recursively. The error I'm having is the following:
