Phatch no longer in repositories, is there another safe location for Ubuntu? I cannot find it in synaptic and no results in Terminal.

1last stable version is from 2010, no wonder that Ubuntu doesn't have it in the repos anymore. – pLumo Dec 14 '18 at 15:20

As of now Phatch is available for 14.04 and 16.04. But you can download its file from Phatch Download (DEB, RPM, TXZ) and install it using:
sudo dpkg -i phatch_0.2.7.1-3.1_all.deb
or right click on downloaded and open with 'Software Install'.

The packages are available in older LTS releases - 14.04 and 16.04 - see packages.ubuntu.com. You need to get all necessary dependencies with:
cd ~/Downloads
wget http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/pillow/python-imaging_3.1.2-0ubuntu1.3_all.deb
wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/phatch/phatch-cli_0.2.7.1-3.1_all.deb
wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/phatch/phatch_0.2.7.1-3.1_all.deb
sudo apt-get install ./python-imaging_3.1.2-0ubuntu1.1_all.deb ./phatch*.deb
And you will get it working:
$ phatch --version
Phatch 0.2.7
