What OS are you running? Python is already installed in Raspbian.

Code: Select all

python-dev is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 268 not upgraded.

To me that message indicates its already installed and up to date.

What OS are you running? If Raspbian, is it the latest version, Pixel?

That is now a different subject to the opening post. Show us the exact error message.

It may be a bad download where you can just apt-get clean to remove and retry but if it persists for different packages as well it might be a corrupted OS. Try a fresh install and see if that makes it better.
