1 | initial version |
There's a lot here so I don't know whether you've got your answer yet or not, but I don't think anyone has said these steps explicitly. The installation requires you to uninstall the pip version if you're running Ubuntu (and trying to install ros-groovy). So follow the installation guide normally up to this step
$ rosdep update
Then if you get the error again after reinstalling Ubuntu (which you said you're doing in your final edit, however that should not affect anything), call:
$ sudo pip uninstall rosdep
to remove the pip version, then try again with
$ sudo rm /etc/ros/rosdep/sources.list.d/20-default.list
$ sudo rosdep init
$ rosdep update
Hope that works
