I've figured it out. See below for advice: on a fresh bioninc server it will not install as it misses the libluajit package, which also seems a bit hard to install until you add the keyword universe to the entries in /etc/apt/sources.list So this is may be an advice for doing a small update on the bionic installation procedure.
So now my file /etc/apt/sources.list looks like: (initially it was without universe) QUOTE deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic main universe deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security main universe deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates main universe UNQUOTE and after that it went smoothly.
