which platform do you use? The Prolog packages seem to be available only 
for i386 and amd64. Can you manually install the packages using apt-get, 
or does `aptitude search swi-prolog` show these packages? This is 
definitely a problem with either Ubuntu or rosdep.

You can, however, manually install Prolog from source (see 
www.swi-prolog.org for instructions) and then ignore the rosdep 
complaints. rosprolog is only a rather shallow wrapper around the Prolog 
binary that allows to launch packages in the KnowRob stack. Before 
launching a package, rosprolog also locates and initializes all required 
ROS packages.

best,
Moritz
