I have a fresh Ubuntu Server 22.04 64Bit installation on my Raspberry Pi 4B 4GB and followed the instructions exactly, here's my history:

    1  sudo apt update
    2  sudo apt upgrade
    3  uname -a
    4  sudo reboot now
    5  uname -a
    6  sudo apt update
    7  sudo apt upgrade
    8  locale
    9  sudo apt update && sudo apt install locales
   10  sudo locale-gen en_US en_US.UTF-8
   11  sudo update-locale LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 LANG=en_US.UTF-8
   12  export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
   13  locale
   14  apt-cache policy | grep universe
   15  sudo apt update && sudo apt install curl gnupg lsb-release
   16  sudo curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ros/rosdistro/master/ros.key -o /usr/share/keyrings/ros-archive-keyring.gpg
   17  echo "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/ros-archive-keyring.gpg] http://packages.ros.org/ros2/ubuntu $(source /etc/os-release && echo $UBUNTU_CODENAME) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ros2.list > /dev/null
   18  sudo apt update
   19  sudo apt upgrade
   20  sudo apt install ros-humble-ros-base

This returns the following error:

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt install ros-humble-ros-base

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 apt : Depends: libapt-pkg6.0 (>= 2.4.5) but it is not going to be installed
       Depends: libsystemd0 but it is not installable
 bsdutils : PreDepends: libsystemd0 but it is not installable
 init : PreDepends: systemd-sysv but it is not going to be installed
 libprocps8 : Depends: libsystemd0 (>= 209) but it is not installable
 util-linux : PreDepends: libsystemd0 but it is not installable
              PreDepends: libudev1 (>= 183) but it is not installable
E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

The fun part is that all dependencies are already installed, they're just not found:

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt install libapt-pkg6.0 libsystemd0 systemd-sysv libudev1

Seems like some update solved the problem. Repeating the above steps with the current kernel and package versions works fine. Current kernel version:

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
