Title:
  23.04 Distribution Upgrade will not start - system says its up to date
  but command line tool says there are still updates

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

Bug description:
  I'm just trying to upgrade from 22.10 to 23.04 and the upgrade will
  not begin.  The GUI installer says everything is up to date.  When I
  push `Upgrade...` nothing happens.  If I open up the command line and
  run `sudo do-release-upgrade` all that is returned is a message to
  install updates...

  ```
  Checking for a new Ubuntu release
  Please install all available updates for your release before upgrading.
  ```

  There are no updates to install.  I've run `sudo apt update && sudo
  apt upgrade` a dozen times.  There are no pending updates in Ubuntu
  Software.
