Salam Alaekum,
Recently Ubuntu pk archive source stopped working, means no update, no packages can be installed using apt-get install command. probably some issues in pk archive.
As showed in the image below . . .

use the following sources.list as a workaround.
nano /etc/apt/sources.list
Remove all previous lines and add following lines.
