Unable to install or udpate any libraries ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'apt_pkg'

I'm using Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS. When I try to install or update any package getting the below error

$ node --version

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/command-not-found", line 28, in <module>
    from CommandNotFound import CommandNotFound
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/CommandNotFound/CommandNotFound.py", line 19, in <module>
    from CommandNotFound.db.db import SqliteDatabase
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/CommandNotFound/db/db.py", line 5, in <module>
    import apt_pkg
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'apt_pkg'

I tried to update and reisntall python-apt library by runnign the below command. But the issues is still presist.

sudo apt update

sudo apt install --reinstall python-apt

Solution

  • The issues got resovled by unistalling and reinstalling the python3-apt library.

    Remove the library:

    sudo apt remove python3-apt

    Install again:

    sudo apt install python3-apt
