Reviewing the files from your upgrade attempt you seem to have enabled a
PPA that provides Xorg packages. This will prevent the upgrade as that
PPA contains different versions of packages essential to Ubuntu.  The
page, https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa, contains details
on to how to revert to the official Xorg packages for the xorg-edgers
PPA.  Instructions for reverting to official Xorg packages should be
similar for the PPA that you have enabled.

Title:
  upgrade failed

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

Bug description:
  upgrading from 13.10 to 14.04 gets to second stage (new software channels) stops with message that error caused by pre-release versions or third-party package. Presumably it is a third-party package, but there is nothing very unusual on there that I know of. Anyway there is no way I can do anything without knowing what the offending package is, which means I must either get this fixed or move to a different OS.
  I am not sure if this is a bug or I just need support, but the message said to report a bug so if it meant call support that is another reason to change operating systems.
  As you may gather, as a long time user of Ubuntu and an IT professional I think this is really disgraceful.
