Uh, I thought that file was now deprecated in favor of the system journal. See https://community.netgear.com/t5/Community-Add-ons/How-best-to-diagnose-false-positive-app-upgrade-in-logs/m-p/1299377#M5762

The install_debpkg.log is a file that is generated when you download the Logs bundle from the UI. Using the journal via journalctl is a backend command. I don't typically advise backend commands. Since you seem to already be familiar with backend commands, You can run apt-get install -yf and it should tell you a bunch of output. Can you copy and paste it into this thread and I can tell you what is going wrong with the installation of your apps?
