Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. The error that you are a reporting is a conflict between
packages from the official Ubuntu archive and packages from a PPA. To
resolve this situation please deactivate PPAs using the tool 'ppa-purge'
which is provided by the ppa-purge package. Then try performing the
release upgrade again. Thanks in advance!

** Changed in: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid

Title:
  Could not calculate the upgrade

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

Bug description:
  There are three causes of this problem regarded in the error message:

  * Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu 
  * Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu 
  * Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu 

  I have not the first two causes, but I have the third. However, it is
  supposed that the installer temporarily cancel any third party
  packages in the previous step, so this cause should not be available.
