I had the same problem when I tried to install Lazarus on Ubuntu Mate 
18.04.  I ended up installing it using the Synaptic Package Manager 
because I would get the same error that you got when I tried to install 
it from either the .deb files or via the regular Ubuntu Software 
application.  I made sure I had all possible source and binary options 
selected for installation.  It worked perfectly when I did it that way.

Hope this helps.

Bye,
Barbara
