*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1069133 ***

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. Thanks.

  Invalid

Bug description:
  Reverts back to 16.10 after reporting the failure could 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"

  The first two are not true.
