I got an error message concerning a package and I did run the recommended command with administrative privileges:

$ sudo apt-get -f install
Preparing to unpack .../libgdk-pixbuf2.0-common_2.31.1-2+deb8u7_all.deb ...

Errors were encountered while processing:

Why is the permission denied for root user? How can I fix this? Thanks in advance.

Is your user in the sudoers group? Try running sudo -l -U name where name is your username. You should see printed the level of sudo access available.

Try cleaning up your packages:

sudo apt-get autoremove

Then run this again:

sudo apt-get -f install

Also that directory looks like its part of the language-pack-gnome-xh-base package, so maybe a apt-get install of that as well.
