Bug Report: Can't install

I wanted to update to the current TLJH version, so I created a new Ubuntu 18.04 live server install, and then tried:

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jupyterhub/the-littlest-jupyterhub/master/bootstrap/bootstrap.py \
| sudo python3 - \
 --admin <my_username>

but the result was

Checking if TLJH is already installed...
Setting up hub environment
Traceback (most recent call last):

subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['apt-get', 'install', '--yes', 'python3', 'python3-venv']' returned non-zero exit status 100.

I checked, and doing

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install --yes python3-venv

tells me

Package python3-venv is not available, but is referred to by another package.

I assumed venv might be installed already and disabled the line in the bootstrap.py file, but it is definitely not installed nor is any obvious variation available on apt-get list.

I faced the same issue as @JuanCab did. python3-venv was not getting installed and threw a similar error. Finally found the root cause. Apparently, the universe repository was not enabled. sudo add-apt-repository universe solved it for me and I could install python3-venv

@AashitaK can you please open a post in discourse about your issue? If you can tell us a little more there about what steps you took and what error exactly you were getting, that would be very useful. Thank you!
