Title:
  the upgrade tool from 19.04 to 19.10 failed badly

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

Bug description:
  I upgraded my old crappy box to 19.10 beta from 19.04, things did not
  go well the upgrade tool eoan it did not run well I could not get many
  of the buttons to work by clicking I had to use tab and enter, then
  the thing that's supposed stop it locking fail while I was asleep;
  woke up it was locked, and when I tried to unlock it I just got a
  blank screen.

  I had to ssh in to it find out what was going on I found it was stuck
  I gave it an hour to come out of it, it didn't, so I killed the
  processes with sudo kill -1 pid-of-the-python-program pid-of-the-
  shell-script then I rebooted it by sudo shutdown, and ssh in again and
  it was still sick and half done, so I called sudo apt upgrade, which
  didn't work but gave me the dpkg (sudo dpkg --configure -a) command to
  use, I ran that and it cleaned it up a lot, and I was able to login to
  gnome-shell it was still on version 3.32.2 and was a little messed up
  but worked, I tried the update-manager -d &, that gave me a partial
  upgrade program which failed, in the end, I fixed it with sudo apt-get
  dist-upgrade and running the normal update-manager program till every
  thing was up to date, now it's fine but it took much drama to do it
