I can't install Midnight Commander (mc), ubuntu 18.04.1.
/etc/apt/sources.list
file:
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic main
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security main
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates main
And this is reply:
sudo apt-get install mc
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package mc is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missig, has been obsoleted, or in only available from another source
This didn't help (#1):
sudo apt-get update
This didn't help (#2):
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:eugenesan/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mc
Also didn't helped repository to set (for example) to http://de.archive.ubuntu.com

You need to enable the universe
repository:
sudo add-apt-repository universe
then update
sudo apt update
and then install mc
:
sudo apt install mc
sudo apt update
is not necessary when adding a repo since it's initialized to latest contents.

When refreshing existing repos - yes, but when adding, it downloads the contents automatically. Just did it. But of course your answer is correct - +1!
