Only 16.04 is officially supported as a base system.

This machine is 16.04 - at least it should be, I spun it up as 16.04 in the web hosting panel.

Oh, I'm sorry! Must have misread. Can't help you out there.

Have you seen these (1,2) issues?

I mean, ansible shows that the machine is 18.04 but I specifically started it via the hosting panel as 16.04... might be something funky with the host's side?

I have the same issue.

Tried installing this many different ways but keep getting to this point. Read somewhere that it might possibly be a rights related issue with git.
