Try first `sudo apt install build-essential git curl` in the log above you forgot the last 2 words.

If it still doesn't work then
What OS/version are you using? Run `cat /etc/os-release` to find out.
Do you see nothing else at all? If not then how quickly does it finish?
Run
`sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade`
and try again.

Typo, It should be `sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade`

Thank You I'm running the updates now and will let you know of my progress. I also notice it was not synchronizing time so I corrected that first now I'm on updates.

There is something odd about your system then, the pi os should do that automatically.
