[Bug 1893510] Re: ubuntu upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04 fails due to dependency collision

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!

** Changed in: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid

** Tags added: ppa xorg-oibaf-ppa

Title:
  ubuntu upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04 fails due to dependency collision

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

Bug description:
  When trying to upgrade to 20.04 via

  $ sudo do-release-upgrade -d'

  the process aborts while calculating dependencies. The first error I
  can spot in /var/log/dist-upgrade/main.log is

  ERROR Dist-upgrade failed: 'Broken packages after upgrade: colord'

  but I am unsure how to dig deeper to find out what exactly is going
  wrong here. Does someone have a hint where to look next?
