To make everything work, follow all the steps up to step 8 (and including step 8) in the question above. Then run these two commands:

$ rosdep install sicktoolbox rviz

$ rosmake sicktoolbox rviz

and voila, the sicktoolbox driver installs, and I confirmed that this actually works. Now I can get past step 1 in the sicktoolbox_wrapper tutorial. someone should update that tutorial as I suspect it no longer applies to Kinetic.
