I wanted to upgrade my 14.04 Ubuntu version to 16.04, but in the Terminal I got this message:

E: The package lcl-utils-1.0.10 needs to be reinstalled, but I
   can't find an archive for it.

I tried to remove and reinstall the program Lazarus, but I can't open the Software Center.

What should I do?

You just need to reinstall Software center

Press Ctrl+Alt+T simultaneously to enter terminal.

To uninstall Software Center:

sudo apt-get remove software-center
sudo apt-get autoremove software-center

To re-install Software Center:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install software-center -y

If this doesn't help then maybe the cache files are corrupted and that's getting in between opening of software center. To regenerate it open a terminal and enter the following:

sudo rm -r /var/cache/software-center/xapian
sudo mv /var/lib/dpkg/info/format /var/lib/dpkg/info/format.bak
sudo dpkg --clear-avail
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install --reinstall software-center

To solve the issue with Lazarus this answer might help you
