[Bug 1893043]

Reviewing the files from your upgrade attempt you seem to have enabled a
PPA that provides Xorg and python packages. This will prevent the
upgrade as that PPA contains packages which generate failures when
trying to calculate the upgrade. You can revert the PPA by installing
the ppa-purge package from the official Ubuntu archive and then running
'sudo ppa-purge ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers'.  After that you can try
upgrading again and if it still fails open a new bug report. Thanks and
good luck!

Title:
  upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04 fails

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

Bug description:
  When attempting a distribution upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04, the
  upgrade fails and returns the following message:

  Could not determine 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.

  If none of this applies, then please report this bug using the command
  'ubuntu-bug ubuntu-release-upgrader-core' in a terminal. If you want
  to investigate this yourself the log files in '/var/log/dist-upgrade'
  will contain details about the upgrade. Specifically, look at
  'main.log' and 'apt.log'.
