I fresh installed Ubuntu 18.04. I want to install python on it so I can run flask on it, but for some reason every time I run
sudo apt install python3-minimal
I keep getting these results:
ashoms@ashoms:~$ sudo apt install python3-minimal
[sudo] password for ashoms:

Need to get 0 B/53.4 kB of archives.

Do you want to continue? [Y/n] y

This seems like there were issues during the install.... apt tells you that python is already installed, but it then tries to finish up outstanding tasks (possibly from the install)

There are severe packages inconsistencies and for installing python3 in debian based systems, you install the packagepython3or similar name. If using kali, use something else.

Thanks a lot for responding, it's been driving me crazy, cant get any work done. But how can I solve the issue cause I have a lot to do and they all keep coming up with the same error.

If a new server, I would reinstall it. You are missing essential packages for system and package administration.
