Não é possível instalar pacotes no Ubuntu 16.10 Yakkety

Question

Durante a instalação do pacote gawk no meu sistema Ubuntu, obtive este erro na linha de comando

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Package gawk is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'gawk' has no installation candidate

Além disso, a instalação de qualquer outro pacote através de sudo apt-get install está resultando em um erro semelhante. Eu pesquisei a solução, mas nenhuma parecia funcionar.

Meu /etc/apt/sources.list tem o seguinte conteúdo:
