Getting error installing a dependency while trying to install drivers in Kubuntu 20.10
I'm falling the install steps https:/
Running 'sudo apt-get install --assume-yes python-pyqt5'
Please wait, this may take several minutes...
error: Command failed. Re-try #1...
After several attempts choosing to retry fter a few attempts to retry, I get this error:
error: Package install command failed with error code 100
No matter how many times I retry the install can't get past this. If I choose 'no' to skip retrying, it just fails on the next package, python-
I've used all the default settings until the error. I want to also note, in case it's important, that in the step before step 8, it shows this:

I tried installing' pyqt5' and 'pil outside the installer using 'sudo apt install xyz' for each. It says it's unable to locate the package in each case.
I'ved tried turning off all programs but Konsole and the web browser, Firefox. I was using Brave but it complained about having that running so I closed it and restart the install process.
I also tried seaching in Muon (like synaptic) for the missing package. There are plenty that look similar but they have something else on the end, but this one looks very similar python3-pyqt5. I wonder if this is what it wants. But it's already installed anyway.
Not sure where to go on this one.
