As the error message said, running sudo dpkg --configure -a will solve the problem. However, I believe running sudo apt install -f would be better. I don't have a Ubuntu system available right now, so I can't .

  1. Hit ctrl+alt+T to open terminal
  2. Type the command you choose. Fix problem using apt or dpkg by using sudo dpkg --configure -a or sudo apt install -f
  3. After you run one, go back to make sure software is installing. If it is, type exit of click the red X to close the terminal. If not, run the other command.
