Which package? Which instructions or commands did you follow to download it? If you didn't download the source in ~/catkin_ws/src, where did you download it to?

I go to the website to download, not from the terminal. I have solved the question, and thanks for your attention.

Follow this tutorial and it will show you how to make and configure the catkin workspace, which is generally ~/catkin_ws

if you mean build that you want to catkin_make, you cant do that in the src, you simply use the command cd.. (to go to catkin_ws) and then catkin_make

if you mean you want to clone a package from github, just create your own workspace (catkin_ws) in your home directory of course with the src, and then follow the instructions in the link you are provided with, dont rely on opt/ros/indigo... just go for your own workspace and explore the packages.
