As the command reports, your "/etc/sudoers" being world writable, i.e., has write permissions for "everyone" in the POSIX sense, is incorrect. sudo, the command to elevate permissions to be able to write the files during installation, is failing because it is a security risk to run when any process can write to this location to setup root permissions on otherwise unauthorized users.
