          Installing the ubuntu-desktop package ought to pull the default packages.



          sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop

            The default set of packages for 18.04 is listed in http://releases.ubuntu.com/18.04/ubuntu-18.04.1-desktop-amd64.manifest (for later releases, just go up to https://releases.ubuntu.com and navigate to the correct release/architecture for your situation).



            You can obtain the package names only from this textfile via the following command:



            curl http://releases.ubuntu.com/18.04/ubuntu-18.04.1-desktop-amd64.manifest | sed -e 's#t.*##g'


            Therefore, you should be able to install those packages by passing the output of that command to apt install:



            # Ubuntu 18.04.1
            sudo apt install $( curl http://releases.ubuntu.com/18.04/ubuntu-18.04.1-desktop-amd64.manifest | sed -e 's#t.*##g' )


            If you're using another version or architecture (arch=amd64 in the above commands), you'll need to modify your command accordingly.
