Public bug reported:

On a server with a fresh install of Ubuntu 18.04 within the past week,
I'm unable install the python3-mock package:

=========
$ sudo apt-get install python3-mock
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package python3-mock 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

E: Package 'python3-mock' has no installation candidate
=========

I took a stab at installing it manually with "dpkg -i" using the package
at:

http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/python-
mock/python3-mock_2.0.0-3_all.deb

Once I installed the prereq (python3-pbr), I was able to install from
the deb package directly. Some other Python3 packages are giving the
same error (python3-zope.event, python3-configargparse). Doing "apt-
cache search python3" does reveal quite a few packages that are
installable, so I'm not sure why these are an issue.
