It says that a previous attempt at installing software was interrupted and must be corrected before you can install any more software.
Run this command in the terminal:
sudo dpkg –configure -a
just as the error requests. Enter your password when requested and it should fix the problem. It might be necessary to run the command more than once if problems continue.
