It kinda sucks when there are people who like to be on top of their updates, but the application is not supporting their system.
As a person that like to be on top of the updates, I do understand there is a trade-off between being at the edge and have good support; and for many project I end up having to build from source.
This is the option you will have to use here as you are using a non supported platform.
I did build both ROS Melodic and ROS 2 Eloquent on Eoan back in October 19 and could use both without issue.
I just followed the official instructions http://wiki.ros.org/melodic/Installation/Source
IIRC the only thing I had to change was to tell rosdep to pretend I was on bionic when resolving dependencies.
rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src --rosdistro melodic -y --os ubuntu:bionic
