This is caused by some "Exec format error" in underlying dependencies. I would guess that there is a corrupted executable on your system. At any rate, VLC cannot install due to missing/broken underlying libraries, which as far as VLC is concerned, is correct behavior. In other words, this is not a VLC bug.
