What version of rospkg are you using?

[akela1101]

I had the same problem, and the answer to the question above is 1.4.0-1.

File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/rospkg/os_detect.py", line 604, in detect_os
    raise OsNotDetected("Could not detect OS, tried %s" % attempted)

$ dpkg -S /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/rospkg/os_detect.py
python3-rospkg-modules: /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/rospkg/os_detect.py

$ apt list | grep rospkg
python3-rospkg-modules/bullseye,now 1.4.0-1 all [installed,automatic]

#51 gives a hit to workaround this issue.

export ROS_OS_OVERRIDE=debian:bullseye

// Though the 51 is about --os=debian:bullseye option failure, which I can still confirm.

The problem is probably in os naming resolution (raspbian instead of debian)...?

I have the same problem of Raspbian:

$ rosdep -v --os=debian:bullseye update

The issue seems to be related to #51, as explicitly overriding OS version from the command line does not help.
