[Bug 2045260] Re: Upgrade from lunar to mantic crashes

[Marek ZJ]

I have found a workaround - remove the initramfs-tools. Seems that this
package is conflicting with some other ones during the upgrade. After
removing it - dracut appeared as a replacement. And then, I was able to
run an upgrade. Afterwards, I have installed initramfs-tools back.

Title:
  Upgrade from lunar to mantic crashes

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

Bug description:
  I have installed a clean kubuntu 22.04 (no changes, except adding
  NOPASSWD to sudoers and installing my favorite editor 'joe'). Then I
  did an upgrade to 23.04, as proposed by do-release-upgrade.
  Afterwards, I wanted to do the next step - to 23.10 with the same
  tool.

  It is failing with a message, that there is an unrecoverable error.
  Looking into /var/log/dist-upgrade/apt.log, there are tons of
  unresolved conflicts. Seems that some packages are obsoleted, but not
  removed during the previous upgrade (or something like that).

  I'm going to investigate it anyway, since I want that upgrade. If I
  find something, I'll post it here.
