I don’t know from where you have got that package. But XAMP have a very easy of installing. open your terminal with CTRL+ALT+T then paste these lines one after one flawlessly.

For 32-Bit Ubuntu

wget http://www.apachefriends.org/download.php?xampp-linux-1.8.3-1-installer.run

chmod +x xampp-linux-1.8.3-1-installer.run

./xampp-linux-1.8.3-1-installer.run

For 64-Bit Ubuntu

wget http://www.apachefriends.org/download.php?xampp-linux-x64-1.8.3-1-installer.run

chmod +x xampp-linux-x64-1.8.3-1-installer.run

./xampp-linux-x64-1.8.3-1-installer.run

After installing to start XAMP type the command as

 /opt/lampp/lampp start

Then check your browser with http://localhost for proper installation verification.
