    I run this command and received error: Reading package lists… Done
    Building dependency tree
    Reading state information… Done
    Package apt-transport-https is not available, but is referred to by another package.
    This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
    is only available from another source

    E: Package ‘apt-transport-https’ has no installation candidate
