The process guide me to file this bug report. [Steps to reproduce] 1. Update the system to the latest stack by "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -y" 2. Reboot 3. Make sure /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades is able to update (The configuration value of "Prompt" should be "lts", namely "Prompt=lts", not "Prompt=never"). 4. Perform the release update: "sudo apt-get update; sudo do-release-upgrade -d" 5. During the update process, it prompts for "Configuring gdm3". There are two choices "gdm3" and "lightdm". I picked up "gdm3". Please refer to the attachment for the prompt details as well. We should use "-d" because bionic beaver has not been officially released yet. [Expected Result] The release update completed and I could start using Bionic instead of Xenial. [Actual Result] The update process failed. It shows the error message[1] and automatically asking for filing this bug report. [1] Preparing to unpack .../qml-module-qtquick-dialogs_5.9.5-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb ...
