The file /var/log/dist-upgrade/main.log will contain information about
the version of ubuntu-release-upgrader you were using.

Title:
  do-release-upgrade doesn't report useful info if a partition is full

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

Bug description:
  I was trying to upgrade and do-release-upgrade was failing saying
  there's no enough disk space.

  This isn't really useful if it doesn't say which partition has that
  issue and how much space the upgrade process will take.

  I managed to solve my particular issue but I think it would be helpful
  if the required info was given with the error message, if it checks
  for disk space,I assume the information is there, just not shown to
  the user.
