As I'm a glutton for punishment I keep trying to find a way to get Python 3 to work with ROS, even starting from source.
Side note: I reviewed ROS2, but the TF2 package isn't incorporated into ROS2 Python3 yet.
Anyways, I tried with a fresh install of Ubuntu 18.04 with the commands below, but I don't seem to download the resources consistently. Only about 4 packages downloaded with the VCSTools fix described below.
I guess what I'm asking, does anyone have a well described path on how to build ROS1 (anything) with Python3 support? Really all I desire is ROS commands, debugging tools, and TF2.
I've tried following these bash.scripts as well,

which also seem to fail similarly.
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu $(lsb_release -sc) main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros-latest.list'
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://ha.pool.sks-keyservers.net:80 --recv-key 421C365BD9FF1F717815A3895523BAEEB01FA116
sudo apt update
# can probably leave out wstool?
