It says some directory and some user already exist, so exiting. I would try getting rid of the directory and the user, try apt-get remove, apt-get install again.
I confess I have never used a linux desktop program. I'm just a command line user. I tried installing software-center here on my ubuntu 12.10 system. apt-get install software-center. It went on a long time. Gosh, it installed a lot of stuff. Anyway, it went to completion. So it "oughta" work there. Here's the tail end, with one line I wrapped by hand to fit better on this forum:

Not sure what else to suggest, except try deleting or changing whatever it's complaining about. Normally, apt-get is very good, as you probably know. But I guess every now and then it can get confused.
But I can see how it might be nice to have a GUI front end. But if it just won't go, you might try aptitude. It's a kind of text-based interface for browsing through packages and installing them. I don't use it. I normally just look around the debian package lists to find something I might want.
