OK, it took me some minutes to figure this out, but now it's a lot clearer, since this time you've provided all of the output for each step.

First let me point to the following sentence in the end of the first paragraph on the installation instructions page: https://openfoam.org/download/5-0-ubuntu/

    Both packs are available for the following versions of Ubuntu, 64 bit only:


Notice the "64 bit only" at the end.

Now if we look at the output that you've provided, there are several occurrences of this excerpt:

    artful-updates/main i386

This means that it's a 32-bit (i386) installation of Ubuntu 17.10, which is why the package "openfoam5" does not exist.


This means that there are only a few other options for installing OpenFOAM 5:

 1. You can re-install Ubuntu, but this time install the 64-bit version.

 2. Or you can install by building from source code, by following these instructions: https://openfoam.org/download/source/

Thnx,
I would never figured this out myself ...
I was under the impression that it was a 64 bit installation. but I goofed up.
