Ok, correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems you've been following this tutorial to get your kinect up and running: http://www.ros.org/wiki/openni_kinect

I briefly attempted to follow this tutorial as well, and it got me good and stuck with the same rosdep errors for Lucid.

If you're running the a recent version of ROS Electric, then you already have the open_kinect stack here: /opt/ros/electric/stacks/openni_kinect Simply remove the tutorial's openni_ros folder from your ROS_PACKAGE_PATH. In your specific case:

rm -r ~/ros_workspace/openni_ros

Then launch your kinect!

roslaunch openni_launch openni.launch
