Could be missing dependencies needed for the program to function.
I suggest installing the snap package.
After the install -> Restart -> Terminal [ctl+alt+t] sudo apt autoremove
Then: sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
Ubuntu is comprised of snap packages.

You need pip installed and python3
sudo apt install pip

Which Ubuntu release are you running?

In the current Ubuntu releases the name of the package that delivers the pip command is named python3-pip
sudo apt install python3-pip
