It was my previously backup package before I reinstall my ubuntu which referring to the tf tutorial. Why am I not able to rosmake it right now? It suppose to be working like other package that I paste into current workspace.

The package is not in your package path probably. Try

export ROS_PACKAGE_PATH=$ROS_PACKAGE_PATH:`pwd`

and rosmake again.

You should execute the command in the package that you are trying to build and then do rosmake after that. Check that the package is indeed in your package path by typing echo $ROS_PACKAGE_PATH

One best way is paste this command into your .bashrc file. It certainly helps.

You don't seem to have beginner_tutorials in your ROS_PACKAGE_PATH.

You should probably add this line to your ~/.bashrc (after the line which sources the ROS setup.bash):

export ROS_PACKAGE_PATH=/path/to/beginner_tutorials:${ROS_PACKAGE_PATH}
