Title:
  Release upgrade fails

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

Bug description:
  Hello, there's bug appeared and the upgrade failed during 'do-release-
  upgrade'. By the way, when I do release upgrade it always fails, like
  when I was updating to 14.04 from 12.04 it failed like this.

  And that's happened when I entered 'y' to confirm deletion of 'unused' packages.
  By the way, why this list includes a lot of needed packages marked as 'for removal' like a lot of php packages,  aptitude-common?

  /var/log/dist-upgrade/main.log and /var/log/dist-upgrade/apt.log
  should be linked as attachments.

  Exception:

  Пожалуйста, сообщите об этой ошибке и включите файлы
  /var/log/dist-upgrade/main.log и /var/log/dist-upgrade/apt.log в ваш
  отчёт. Обновление было отменено.
  Ваш оригинальный файл sources.list был сохранён в
  /etc/apt/sources.list.distUpgrade.
