i installed kali yesterday.i think i have yet to install some non free firmwares as i selected no for quite a few options during installation and i wasn't connected to ethernet either. wifi seems to work completely fine though.i wanted to install relay-an irc client and i got an error:

telling that add-apt-repository command not found. i did some google and found out i gotta install python-software-properties and got the following error:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package python-software-properties 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

E: Package 'python-software-properties' has no installation candidate

next i tried software-properties-common:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package software-properties-common

No luck there either.later i tried python3-software-properties

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package python3-software-properties

so how do i repair this?what should i do?
