1) It depends on whether the package has been ported from rosbuild to catkin. Not all packages were converted. If you need to convert there's a guide here: http://wiki.ros.org/catkin/migrating_from_rosbuild

2) A good place to get an overview of the design of catkin see: http://wiki.ros.org/catkin/conceptual_overview
