From these error messages:
E: The package apport needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
Package apport is not configured yet.
It would seem there is an issue with apport.
Kindly change your download servers then try reinstalling apport.
sudo apt install --reinstall apport
Edit 1
To change the download server, kindly search in dash for 'Software & Updates' and open it. On the first tab, in the section 'Download from' kindly select the main server if another is selected.
See screenshot below:

I changed the download server to Main Server. It gave the same error in dialog box. Failed to load the package list This is a serious problem. Try again later. If this problem appears again, please report an error to the developers E:The package apport needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.

From these error messages:
E: The package apport needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
Package apport is not configured yet.
It would seem there is an issue with apport.
Kindly change your download servers then try reinstalling apport.
sudo apt install --reinstall apport
Edit 1
To change the download server, kindly search in dash for 'Software & Updates' and open it. On the first tab, in the section 'Download from' kindly select the main server if another is selected.
See screenshot below:
