Did you try a sudo apt-get update before the apt-get install command?

Lorenz gravatar image Lorenz  ( Oct 11 '12 )edit

I followed the install instruction on ros wiki,no doubt the process was right

I had a similar issue which boiled down to one uninstallable package.

This package was uninstallable because multiverse sources.list (was commented out).

(with that said, I did make the change, installed ROS and apparently did a subsequent update because the line is no longer commented out).
