Trying to install pip with Ubuntu version 20.04, Python version 3.8 on my Oracle virtual box. Tried everything to install pip but failed

Steps tried

$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install python3-pip

Also tried

$ sudo apt-get install python3-pip

Error both times

python3-pip is not available but is being used by another candidate. This may mean that the package has been obsolete, has been missing or is only available from another source.

Does this answer your question? How do I enable the "Universe" repository? If not, please edit your question to clearly explain what you tried. "Everything" is much too vague. – user535733 Jun 01 '20 at 05:12
Found in https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=focal&searchon=names&keywords=python3-pip 'universe', do you have it enabled? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu (or see duplicate link) – guiverc Jun 01 '20 at 05:13
