Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.

I see a number of 3rd party packages, esp. from
https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+ppa-packages

For best results with a release-upgrade, you should remove all 3rd party
packages (bringing your system back to a pure Ubuntu one, ie. no 3rd
party packages) then perform the upgrade. The tool ppa-purge can assist
with this.

Likely related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-
release-upgrader/+bug/1069133

(following from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-
release-upgrader/+bug/1922546/comments/2)

[The use of oibaf ppa] 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
ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers'. After that you can try upgrading again and
if it still fails open a new bug report. Thanks and good luck!

  I have tried multiple times to upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04 but it
  fails everytime

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

Bug description:
  Could not calculate the upgrade

  An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.

  This was caused by: 
  * Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu 
  This is most likely a transient problem, 
  please try again later. 
  If none of this applies, then please report this bug using the 
  command 'ubuntu-bug ubuntu-release-upgrader-core' in a terminal. If 
  you want to investigate this yourself the log files in 
  '/var/log/dist-upgrade' will contain details about the upgrade. 
  Specifically, look at 'main.log' and 'apt.log'.
