ubuntu16.04 sudo rosdep init 报错 The ‘rosdep==0.21.0‘ distribution was not found

在我安装完ros-kinetic版本之后，需要进行初始化

sudo rosdep init

这个时候系统报了一个错误信息提示我某样东西没有安装

    raise DistributionNotFound(req, requirers)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'rosdep==0.21.0' distribution was not found and is required by the application

报错原因：
ubuntu 默认python版本为python3，而不是python2；

joanna@joanna-System-Product-Name:~$ python --version
Python 3.6.4
joanna@joanna-System-Product-Name:~$ update-alternatives --list python
/usr/local/bin/python3

网上的错误答案

上网搜索资料之后说是需要安装Python3 版本的 rosdep
sudo apt install python3-rosdep
为了安装这个，又需要去安装一堆依赖库
sudo apt-get install python3-catkin-pkg
sudo apt-get install python3-rospkg
sudo apt-get install python3-rosdep-modules
神奇的是，你会发现在安装这些的时候ros当中的很多组建被奇怪的卸载掉了！！
不信的话你再运行一遍
sudo apt-get install ros-kinetic-desktop
会发现还有很多东西没安装，如果又重新安装了，又会报最先前的错误，于是又去重新装 Python3 版本的 rosdep，反反复复死循环；

正确解决方案—设置python2为默认版本

1. 查看python2的位置；which python2
2. 设置为可选择版本；sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python2 150
3. 查看可选择版本；update-alternatives --list python

joanna@joanna-System-Product-Name:~$ which python2
/usr/bin/python2
joanna@joanna-System-Product-Name:~$ sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python2 150
joanna@joanna-System-Product-Name:~$ 
/usr/bin/python2
/usr/local/bin/python3

4. 切换Python版本；sudo update-alternatives --config python
5. 查看当前版本；python --version

joanna@joanna-System-Product-Name:~$ sudo update-alternatives --config python
There are 2 choices for the alternative python (providing /usr/bin/python).

  Selection    Path                    Priority   Status
------------------------------------------------------------
* 0            /usr/local/bin/python3   150       auto mode
  1            /usr/bin/python2         150       manual mode
  2            /usr/local/bin/python3   150       manual mode

Press <enter> to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number: 1
update-alternatives: using /usr/bin/python2 to provide /usr/bin/python (python) in manual mode
joanna@joanna-System-Product-Name:~$ python --version
Python 2.7.12

6. 运行sudo rosdep init

joanna@joanna-System-Product-Name:~$ sudo rosdep init
Wrote /etc/ros/rosdep/sources.list.d/20-default.list
Recommended: please run

	rosdep update
