yep, saw that, but as i'm still getting my head around ROS / Raspbian / Rpi, didn't want to complicate things by installing ROS on Raspbian, emulated in qemu, in ubuntu, in a virtual box on windows7. next time definately, i'm only patient the first time.

i'm currently installing ROS groovy onto Rpi, and had the same issue. It was related to my outdated printout of the instructions. Double check the install instructions. they've been update a few times in the last few days.

python-rospkg is related to installing python-pip and/or python-gtk2 back in step 2 "Install the core dependencies". To fix python-rospkg (plus others) I ...
sudo apt-get install python-pip python-gtk2
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade (to be sure, to be sure, to be sure)
this removed 8 of the 12 depenicies listed in rosdep check. the remaining 4, I removed manually from the package.xml files.
And all was good in the land of catkin...

On a side note: catkin_make_isolated takes 24-36 hours to run, most of the time is cmake'ing PCL.
Also a 8GB sd card isn't big enough. 16gb is working for far.
Hope this helps.
