[Bug 1314739] Re: Unable to upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04

[Rob Hills]

I just noticed that the debugging info above suggests I updated to Saucy
yesterday.  This is incorrect.  Looking at my apt logs, I have installed
Saucy back in October 2013.

In case it is relevant, I have changed computers since.  My current
spindle (an SSD) was in my old notebook computer which developed
intermittent hardware faults so I purchased a new notebook in March this
year and simply moved the SSD into the new notebook.  Perhaps this (or
the intermittent hardware faults) have contributed to/caused my current
upgrade problem?

Title:
  Unable to upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04

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

Bug description:
  When I execute:
  sudo do-release-upgrade

  in the terminal, it gets to the point where it says:
    Calculating the changes
    Calculating the changes

  and then says:
  An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade. 

  This can be caused by: 
  * Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu 
  * Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu 
  * Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu 

  If none of this applies, then please report this bug using the 
  command 'ubuntu-bug ubuntu-release-upgrader-core' in a terminal. 

  As none of the above applies, I'm mystified as to why this is
  happening.
