Also include the command(s) you used to remove nautilus in the first place. Perhaps you removed more than you intended.

@karel I have just purgednautiluson clean Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and 18.10 VMs - it removednautilus,nautilus-shareandubuntu-desktop, but system is still usable. Runningapt autoremoveremoves only old kernels, either. So the main problem of this question is lack or details.

The Ubuntu desktop system package (ubuntu-desktop) depends on all of the packages in the Ubuntu desktop system. In all currently supported versions of Ubuntu open the terminal and type:
sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop
sudo reboot
In order to preview what sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop installs without installing anything run apt show ubuntu-desktop
In order to simulate what sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop installs without installing anything run apt install ubuntu-desktop --simulate

If a package has dependencies that cannot be satisfied you can use aptitude to resolve them:
sudo aptitude install nautilus
This will give you choices on which packages to keep or remove such that nautilus can be installed. There can be many different ways to resolve dependencies and you don't have to accept the first choices given. Keep answering the prompts about which packages you want to keep or remove until the dependencies are resolved.

That's likely because that package is no longer needed and would be removed byapt autoremoveanyhow.

That's because I updated the kernel today, but I haven't runsudo apt autoremoveafter updating the kernel yet.
