[Bug 2092462] Re: Cannot upgrade from Ubuntu 20.04: "An unresolvable problem occurred"

Fixed. Massively removed packages I had installed (apt-mark showmanual)
until at some point the problem disappeared.

Title:
  Cannot upgrade from Ubuntu 20.04: "An unresolvable problem occurred"

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

Bug description:
  Upgrading from Ubuntu 20.04. The upgrader stops at:

  ```
  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'. 
  ```

  I have already removed all PPAs, uninstalled most manual packages I
  found; and there are no 'held back' packages. How can I find what is
  the package or dependency that causes upgrader to fail?
