It looks like rosdep is broken (again). We have users here who depend on being able to set up new accounts and machines on a regular basis, and this is setting back time-cortical work (prepping robots to ship to ICRA and ROSCon).
Will we be required to delete our sources ( /etc/ros/rosdep/sources.list.d ) and re-initialize them when this is over?
Thanks,
-Austin
