Reviewing the files from your upgrade attempt you seem to have enabled
the xorg-edgers-ppa.  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.  Thanks.

Title:
  Message "Can't install 'ubuntu-desktop'" during upgrade 14.10>15.04

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

Bug description:
  OS version = Ubuntu 14.10
  package version = unsure, but it's the automatic Ubuntu updater in Ubuntu 14.10.
  Expected = no error.
  Actual = Ubuntu notified me that there's a new version available. I confirmed that I wanted to upgrade, and the window "Distribution Upgrade" started working:

  quote:
  Upgrading Ubuntu to version 15.04
  v Preparing to upgrade
  > Setting new software channels
  unquote.

  At this stage, an error was displayed:

  quote:
  Can't install 'ubuntu-desktop'

  It was impossible to install a required package. Please report this as
  a bug using 'ubuntu-bug ubuntu-release-upgrader-core' in a terminal.

  [OK]
  unquote.

  After clicking "OK" the installer seems to have continued okay anyway.
