[Bug 1873687] Re: could not calculate upgrade while upgrading to 18.04

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:
  could not calculate upgrade while upgrading to 18.04

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

Bug description:
  While trying to upgrade to Ubuntu 18.04, I get this error message:

  Could not calculate the upgrade

  An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.

   This was likely caused by:
   * Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu
  Please use the tool 'ppa-purge' from the ppa-purge 
  package to remove software from a Launchpad PPA and 
  try the upgrade again.
