Go to Applications --> Add/Remove

and in the search tab look up for cheese

Finally apply the changes.

Edit: Perhaps if you use the Main repository instead of the local you are using it'll work.

Is your Synaptic Package Manager open when you are installing cheese? If so, close Synaptic Package Manager and then run this command.

I marked Cheese for installation in Synaptic Package Manager. This came up.

I tried in Terminal. This came up.

May be the server is down. In Synaptic Package Manager, go to Settings > Repositories and try to select different server and see if it works.
