Public bug reported:
There is no installable "python" package on Focal. An attempt to install
it produces the following error:
$ sudo apt install python
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package python is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
python2-minimal:i386 python2:i386 python2-minimal python2 python-is-python2
2to3 python-is-python3
E: Package 'python' has no installation candidate
This breaks the installation of many other software packages which have
the "python" package as a dependency.
