E: The package resolvconf needs to be reinstalled

It sounds like you are having a dependency issue, so the following should solve that:

sudo apt-get install -f
sudo apt-get upgrade

install -f will solve dependency issues and help to fix broken packages.

EDIT

Try this to install the package:

cd
wget http://91.189.91.13/ubuntu/pool/main/r/resolvconf/resolvconf_1.69ubuntu1_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i resolvconf_1.69ubuntu1_all.deb

This will download the package from a Ubuntu repository that has a DNS issue, hence the IP address rather than a domain name (source: This answer)
