Either update to a newer ubuntu release, or you can do this :
sudo sed -i -re 's/([a-z]{2}\.)?archive.ubuntu.com|security.ubuntu.com/old-releases.ubuntu.com/g' /etc/apt/sources.list
then :
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
thus your /etc/apt/sources.list should look like this :
deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ zesty-updates main
deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ zesty-backports main
deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu zesty-security main
deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu zesty main universe restricted multiverse
You should then be able to install the package. If you are still having trouble then make sure you have the correct package name. Do a search on :

old-releases.ubuntu.comwhich will mean package errors. Upgrade to 17.10 as it should have been prompting you to do for some time. – guiverc Jan 23 '18 at 09:16
