Please try installing one of the supported meta-pkgs and see if the upgrade can be calculated after that.  Thanks in advance.

Title:
  Wouldn't complete Ubuntu 15.04 upgrade from 14.04 LTS.

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

Bug description:
  First sign of a problem is when it says:

  ==================================
  Third party sources disabled

  Some third party entries in your sources.list were disabled.  You can re-enable them after the upgrade with the 'software-properties' tool or your package manager.
                                                                    [Close]
  ==================================

  Then it reported:

  =========================================
  Can't install 'ubuntu-desktop'

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

  Then, it said:

  =================================================
  Error authenticating some packages

  It was not possible to authenticate some packages.  This may be a transient network problem.  You may want to try again later.  See below for a list of unauthenticated packages.

  I decided to upgrade to 15.04, as the trackpointer stopped working for
  me.  Via some configuration changes, I was able to get the
  trackpointer working.  But, now the incessantly irritating trackpad
  cannot be turned off, and causes the pointer to jump about the screen
  wildly while typing, randomly selecting arbitrary stuff.  It is now
  essentially unusable!

  No solution seems to fix this.  And, now I see that I cannot upgrade!

  For now, I am using aluminum foil in a feeble attempt to block the
  crummy trackpad.
