Following the official documentation I used the command below but it seems a lot of these packages are not available on Ubuntu 18. I figured a lot of people would have had this same issue but when I searched I didn’t find anything. Are these packages actually required to run LibreNMS? And if so, how should I proceed on Ubuntu 18?
sudo apt install curl apache2 composer fping git graphviz imagemagick libapache2-mod-php7.2 mariadbclient mariadb-server mtr-tiny nmap php7.2-cli php7.2-curl php7.2-gd php7.2-json php7.2-mbstring php7.2- mysql php7.2-snmp php7.2-xml php7.2-zip python-memcache python-mysqldb rrdtool snmp snmpd whois .

Package graphviz 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

Copy and pasting the command from the docs:

Did you run apt update first?

Yes. Maybe there is something wrong with my Ubuntu installation? I also ran sudo apt-get upgrade and it ran fine.

All packages are up to date.
Make sure you sent the right command. You have it wrong in your initial post here…
When are you using an ubuntu 18 for the first time you need to enable repositories with
sudo add-apt-repository universe
sudo add-apt-repository multiverse
then you can install packages
