Reviewing the files from your upgrade attempt, you have installed
packages from the deadsnakes PPA. Some of the packages installed are
newer than those in the official archive, which is keeping some python
packages installed which then prevents the upgrade from being
calculated. Please try using the ppa-purge tool to remove packages
installed from ppa:deadsnakes/ppa. After that you can try upgrading
again and if it still fails open a new bug report. Thanks and good luck!

Title:
  can't upgrade - not clear what ppa-purge should purge

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

Bug description:
  upgrading from 20.04.4 to 22 and get error:

  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.

  i downloaded ppa-purge, but it's not clear what needs to be purged,
  nor what the issue is (from looking the logs mentioned).
