[Bug 1793974] [NEW] Unable to upgrade 16.04 LTS -> 18.04 LTS: "Could not calculate the upgrade"

[Zachary Kaplan]

Public bug reported:

Upon running `sudo do-release-upgrade`, the following output was
generated:

Could not calculate 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.
