  • Make sure you have [enabled the universe repository](https://askubuntu.com/questions/148638/how-do-i-enable-the-universe-repository) then run `sudo apt-get update` and try again – steeldriver Feb 01 '18 at 23:38
  • Thank you so much it works, but i want to ask what does universe repository do ? – Cagan Sit Feb 02 '18 at 00:56
  • It's the repository that contains the package that you are trying to install - see [What's the difference between multiverse, universe, restricted and main?](https://askubuntu.com/questions/58364/whats-the-difference-between-multiverse-universe-restricted-and-main) – steeldriver Feb 02 '18 at 00:58

Try to add universe repository manually, update lists and install gftp:

sudo add-apt-repository universe
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gftp
