Fail to catkin_make when following instructions in order #9

I'm not sure if website readers are supposed to follow the website instructions in page-by-page order. I think most users will do so and in which case will face a workspace build error. When running catkin_make in Chap 1 > System: ROS, Gazebo > Create a ROS workspace, the page assumes that the workspace is empty. However, a user who followed step-by-step would have osr_course_pkgs cloned into his/her workspace in Chap 1 > Basic tools

The following error will occur:

CMake Error at /opt/ros/kinetic/share/catkin/cmake/catkinConfig.cmake:83 (find_package):
  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "openrave_catkin"
  with any of the following names:

    openrave_catkinConfig.cmake
    openrave_catkin-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "openrave_catkin" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or
  set "openrave_catkin_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.
  If "openrave_catkin" provides a separate development package or SDK, be
  sure it has been installed.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  osr_course_pkgs/osr_openrave/CMakeLists.txt:4 (find_package)

Let me know if this is a legitimate issue and I can propose a PR for this
