Hi Arunendra,

The errors which are shown in the command terminal means that the repository from which you are downloading the packages does seem to have some it. You can try changing the repository and then try : "sudo apt-get update" to check . Also check with the System admins in your collage in case of some proxy issues while downloading these packages.  

If all the packages are downloaded properly I don't think there would be any problem while checking OpenFOAM installation.

P.S : O<span style="line-height: 1.428571429;">pen up a new command terminal </span><span style="line-height: 1.428571429;">for running the command icoFoam -help.</span>
<span style="line-height: 1.428571429;">
</span>
<span style="line-height: 1.428571429;">Regards,</span>

Another point, you can run the command  " icoFoam -help " directly on the command terminal. There is no need to go inside OpenFOAM folder .
