Error: could not call python function 'rosdep2.rospack.init_rospack_interface'

环境

Ubuntu 14.04 + ROS indigo

今早装了个catkin工具，装了部分依赖，然后下午在编译ORB-SLAM2的时候突然被卡住了，一个近乎诡异的报错，提示：

[rospack] Error: could not call python function 'rosdep2.rospack.init_rospack_interface'

详细报错信息如下：

  Failed to invoke rospack to get compile flags for package 'ORB_SLAM2'.
  Look above for errors from rospack itself.  Aborting.  Please fix the
  broken dependency!

解决方案

sudo rosdep fix-permissions

rosdep update

然后再去cmake编译即可。
