E: Unable to locate package python-pip
E: Package 'python-smbus' has no installation candidate
E: Unable to locate package python-spidev

somtheing is seriously messed up with your raspbian install. make sure you have internet and update/upgrade your board. we only support raspbian/raspiOS

we only support raspbian/raspiOS

Thaat makes sense, is there a future where Ubuntu server is supported?

ladyada commented 3 years ago

if someone could submit a PR for the differences we'd look to add it, but its hard enough supporting raspbian we do not have plans to do it ourselves :) closing for now
