Title:
  Dist-upgrade failed: 'E:Unable to correct problems, you have held
  broken packages.'

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

Bug description:
  Hi , \
  while i will upgrade the ubuntu 22.04 to 23.04 the ubuntu told me 
  An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade. 

  This was likely caused by: 
  * Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu 
  Please use the tool 'ppa-purge' from the ppa-purge 
  package to remove software from a Launchpad PPA and 
  try the upgrade again. 

  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'.
