I came accross the same issue when upgrading Ubuntu Jammy to Noble using
do-release-upgrade -d

In https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/+bug/2058648 it was
stated that the package usrmerge was not installed, but running apt-get
install usrmerge stated:

# apt-get install usrmerge
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Package usrmerge is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'usrmerge' has no installation candidate

Easiest solution for me was
 1. download usrmerge from https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/usrmerge
 2. install using dpkg -i
 3. run apt-get install -f

This installed the remaining packages just fine.
