Public bug reported: I have 16.04.5 LTS. I have run sudo apt-get update, upgrade and autoremove (to remove broken packages). When I run sudo do-release-upgrade, it starts off fine but then it aborts the upgrade. Here is the end of the output:
Checking package manager Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Calculating the changes Calculating the changes Could not determine the upgrade An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade. This can be caused by: * Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu * Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu * Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu If none of this applies, then please report this bug using the command 'ubuntu-bug ubuntu-release-upgrader-core' in a terminal.
