I also tried
sudo aptitude purge gcc-8-base

As this is so far as I know the only package I installed from 'testing'.

Title:
upgrade from Ubuntu 16.04 to 18.04 failed
Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
The upload GUI said a new version was available and would I like to
upgrade. I clicked yes and it went off and tried to do its thing but
failed with:
"Could not determine the upgrade
An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.
This can 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
If none of this applies, then please report this bug using the command
'ubuntu-bug ubuntu-release-upgrader-core' in a terminal."
So I ran the requested command and ended up here...
Now I do have some third party channels in /etc/apt/sources.list.d
but there is no information in the GUI telling me what went wrong.
I tried upgrading from the command line with:
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Both of these seem to think I am already up to date.
"0 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 0 to remove and 0 not to upgrade."
