python error on fresh install Ubuntu server 20.04
by axolinx from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5M741)
Hi Guys.
I am playing with a fresh installed and updated ubuntu 20.04 server at home.
I am trying to run an ansible playbook that sets up nextcloud and other services and i am getting these errors:
Code:The following packages have unmet dependencies:
python-is-python2 : Breaks: python-is-python3 but 3.8.2-4 is to be installed
python-is-python3 : Breaks: python
Breaks: python-is-python2 but 2.7.17-4 is to be installed

python3 is already the newest version (3.8.2-0ubuntu2).
python3 set to manually installed.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Something related with python.. but in the last command it tells me it is already installed.
I found a few posts online with people having similar issues but no solution that applies to my case.
Any ideas how to fix this?
Thank you guys
