if you want the exact setup the installer would give you, you need to
use the task, not the metapackage (they resolve dependencies slightly
different) so either use tasksel to install ubuntu-desktop or use aps
and append a caret to the package name like:

    sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop^

note that there are no other official desktop metapackages that are
supported

(there are obsolete things like "ubuntu-gnome-desktop" or "vanilla-
gnome-desktop" from ancient times in universe though, don't get tricked
by them, they are mostly unmaintained and bit-rotting ... there is also
a "gnome" package in universe synced from debian that will likely give
you the most minimally possible gnome setup debian has i guess)

ciao
