Reviewing the files from your upgrade attempt you seem to have enabled a
PPA that provides Xorg packages. This will prevent the upgrade as that
PPA contains package version numbers greater than the release to which
you are upgrading. You can revert the PPA by installing the ppa-purge
package from the official Ubuntu archive and then running 'sudo ppa-
purge oibaf'.  After that you try upgrading and again and if it still
fails open a new bug report.  Thanks and good luck!

Title:
  Upgrade from 15.10 to 16.04 LTS is not possible

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  when trying to upgrade to wily werewolf, I received the following error message:
  Ein unlösbares Problem trat beim Ermitteln der Systemaktualisierung auf.

   Dies kann verursacht worden sein durch:
   * Aktualisieren auf eine Vorabversion von Ubuntu
   * Verwendung der aktuellen Vorabversion von Ubuntu
   * Inoffizielle Softwarepakete, die nicht von Ubuntu bereitgestellt wurden

  I already uninstalled all packages I had installed, but still I
  receive this error message.

  Is there another way to upgrade to 16.04?
