I have found that terminal on my PC doesn't work properly. I have tried to install a program and it doesn't work. I have tried to install some programs over Ubuntu software center but that also turned out not to be working.

I used command

sudo apt install (name of the program)

In this case Code::Blocks

After that terminal gives me an error message :

codeblocks : depends: libcodeblocks0 it isn't going to be installed 
depends: codeblocks-common (= 13.12+dfsg-4) it isn't going to be installed 
kde-telephaty-minimal: Depends: kde-confing-telephaty-accounts (=> 15.04.0) but it isn't going to be installed 

I searched for the solution online but it didn't help, I guess it has to do with that Kde-telephaty thing but I don't really understand what that is...
I want this thing to be gone because it prevents me from installing stuff new programs. How can I fix this and what causes it?

Results of sudo apt-get -f install:

    What makes you sure, that the error is "trying to overwrite file"? It could be also askubuntu.com/questions/140246/…. I think some information is missing here. OP, please edit the question and add the full output of sudo apt install -f.

You can remove all of the files creating the problem.

Steps

dpkg --list | grep codeblock

this will list all the codeblock relative packages

sudo dpkg --purge codeblocks-dev

remove the packages that have unmet dependencies

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

alawys be up-to-date... It might create problems when you don't upgrade.

sudo apt-get -f install

this will resume the incomplete install.

sudo apt-get clean

at last.
