You need to "pip install -U rospkg"

I'm fixing an issue right now that will make this problem go away with the next update.

It worked for me, but had to use 'rosmake --pre-clean'.

I dont think you have to easy_install rosdep; isn't it a part of the package that you download?

rosdep 2 is now a standalone tool and has a different architecture. So Kei is referring to the Fuerte version

Does it mean that in the future, rosdep 2 will not be included in the deb and therefore should always be installed by pip? What will happen for the "normal" user?

rosdep is now equivalent to 'rosinstall' for the normal user. Both are install outside of a distribution so that they can be upgraded continuously (e.g. to deploy new platform support more easily)
