I expected ubuntu mate welcome to install a package for scheduling tasks instead I got an error message and no package installed. I don't think this affects all packages as I was able to install synaptic succesfully.

Confirmed. There doesn't seem to be any packages for this in Xenial (16.04) at the moment. This might be temporary or they could have been withdrawn.
