Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.
I note you are using an EOL Ubuntu 17.04 kernel, rather than the
standard Ubuntu 16.04 (4.4) or Ubuntu 16.04 HWE (4.15) kernel, and loads
of tainted messages in your `dmesg`
[28275.945575] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 514 at

These I suspect are the reason for your problem, ie.
Failed to execute operation: Connection timed out
dpkg: error processing archive
/var/cache/apt/archives/policykit-1_0.105-14.1ubuntu0.5_amd64.deb (--unpack):
subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1
thus I would suggest using a supported Ubuntu 16.04 LTS kernel, either
the standard 4.4 or HWE (hardware-enablement-stack) 4.15 and trying
again. I've marked this bug incomplete, if you believe I'm wrong or
missing something, please return it to new and leave a comment
explaining why.
Thanks again for reporting this issue, and helping making Ubuntu a
better system.
