Now I am aware that ruby gem is not an Ubuntu method, but the above clearly shows it is doing apt-get install which is. Furthermore OpenSCAP is itself installable on Ubuntu via

apt-get install libopenscap8

and after this the command

oscap -V

Produces the result of

OpenSCAP command line tool (oscap) 1.2.8
Copyright 2009--2016 Red Hat Inc., Durham, North Carolina.

(and a lot of other info.)

If OpenSCAP is not supposed to work between TheForeman and Ubuntu as a server then TheForeman should not allow running this install option for this plugin at all. As it does it should work and it does not.
