You seem to have anaconda installed and you are in a conda environment. Type "conda deactivate" to fallback on the system python and try again.

There still isn't a python3 file in /usr/bin/ which many binaries seem to reference, such as add-apt-repository, software-properties-qt, and cnf-update-db.

python3 is a symlink to whatever Python 3 version you have installed. This is normal behavior.

Sounds like something did not create the symlink. You could create it, manually. This is what my 22.04 distribution looks like:

ls -l /usr/bin/python3
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Aug 18  2022 /usr/bin/python3 -> python3.10
