  • Your command looks okay to me; so I'd suggest entering the following command apt-cache policy gparted and adding its output to your question. The only obvious thing missing is you need to update your repository lists with the command sudo apt-get update before you sudo apt-get install gparted (if you are using a 'live' environment it must be done each boot)

You need update the apt repository lists using:



sudo apt-get update


then try again 



sudo apt-get install gparted


Also you can install Gparted from the source. To do so, run the following commands in Terminal:



sudo apt-get build-dep gparted
sudo apt-get install git gnome-common
git clone git://git.gnome.org/gparted
cd gparted
./autogen.sh
make 
sudo make install


Also if none above works please check your /etc/apt/sources.list or try to change to main server and then run again: sudo apt update



default apt source list:



# deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 16.04 LTS _Xenial Xerus_ - Release amd64 (20160420.1)]/ xenial main restricted
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial main restricted universe multiverse

    This question addresses the same problem that you have, you can have a look at "Unable to locate package" while trying to install packages with APT.

                            Just use the apt command like this:



                            $ sudo apt install gparted


                            That should work, let us know.
