  Upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04 failed

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

Bug description:
  I tried to upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04 per Ubuntu instructions.
  Upgrade halted at early stage "Could not calculate the upgrade" with
  likely cause said to be unofficial software packages. I tried to
  remove with GUI Software & Updates but that did not help. I do not
  know how to use ppa-purge tool.
