If you are on Ubuntu you should install the .deb package for Ubuntu. You are currently trying to install a CentOS .rpm package which will not work.

does the .deb file exist on the system: i.e. did you wget the pkg before installing it?

wget https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/releases/download/v6.0.0-alpha.9/powershell_6.0.0-alpha.9-1ubuntu1.14.04.1_amd64.deb

Yeah , i just got it working now. Had some issues from the VPN access. Its sorted out now. Thanks so much for quick reverts.
