To install the traceroute package, enter the following at the command-line:

sudo apt install traceroute

That worked fine for me. If it does not work for you, check if you have a network problem and make sure other things are updated first, like this:

sudo apt update

followed by

sudo apt upgrade

and then after that, try installing traceroute again.

Are you using a proxy or a firewall? For me it seems that you enter the correct apt install .... code but the connection itself is not being established.
