Welcome here, at LQ!

I'm afraid you need to give more information, that is not enough to help you.

Welcome to LinuxQuestions!

You've not given us much to go on.

1.) What distro are you using?
2.) What packages exactly can't you install?
3.) How were you trying to install them? Command line? Package manager?

Show us exactly what you did, a couple of lines from the log don't tell us what you did.

Play Bonny!
