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

  Could not calculate the upgrade

  An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.

  removal deny list.

  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
