[Bug 2054319] Re: System installed from jammy point release iso cannot upgrade to noble

[Skia]

Maybe not related to latest point iso in particular, since the problem seems a bit more generic on my side: upgrading desktop image from Jammy to Noble breaks with `gnome-shell` crash (linked in attachment), along with the tracker-extract-3 crash already mentionned.
This reproduces both locally with a manual `sudo do-release-upgrade -d` in a Gnome Terminal, and in Jenkins running auto-upgrade-testing tool, but both images came from preinstalled cloud images, upgraded to latest Jammy, so none installed from point release iso.

Title:
  System installed from jammy point release iso cannot upgrade to noble

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

Bug description:
  We have different crashes being encountered. In our auto-upgrade-
  testing, we see gnome-shell crash, however, when testing locally, I
  didn't experience this. @hyask did experience the gnome-shell crash
  though.

  When running an upgrade from jammy to noble in a virsh vm, about
  halfway through the upgrade process my gui dies. I then ran the
  upgrade from a console, to which it revealed that just the gui dies -
  the upgrade process, for me, continues and then laterally fails.
