    The package should be located in the universe collections of Ubuntu. Check your software & updates to ensure that the 'community-maintained free and open-source software (universe)' collection is checked, and then perform sudo apt-get update and try to re-install.

Dunno, why this haven't been put as an answer, I'll just put it here, from Charles Green excellent comment.



android-tools-adb and android-tools-fastboot are in the universe repository.
You can enable it in Software Center or just hit this one-liner which will enable and install everything.



sudo add-apt-repository universe && sudo apt-get update && sudo install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot

      I had to slightly tweak the suggested command from Suncatcher. The following worked for me:



      sudo add-apt-repository universe && sudo apt-get update && android-tools-fastboot


      and then use:



      sudo install android-tools-adb
