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 package version numbers greater than the release to which
you are upgrading. You can revert the PPA by installing the ppa-purge
package from the official Ubuntu archive and then running 'sudo ppa-
purge oibaf'.  After that you try upgrading and again and if it still
fails open a new bug report.  Thanks and good luck!

Title:
  update attempt crashes

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

Bug description:
  I've been trying to get this system to upgrade for a couple of weeks
  now, but it's been a background task for me, and I haven't really been
  able to take the time to track it down or analyze it.  The packet of
  info that got shipped to you folks from this (and the last two or
  three) crash will tell you volumes more than I can.
