Title:
  Can not do "do-release-upgrade -d" due to phased updates

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

Bug description:
  I wanted to do a release upgrade from noble to plucky with:

  $ do-release-upgrade -d
  Checking for a new Ubuntu release
  Please install all available updates for your release before upgrading.


  But I can't install any other updates because those are phased:

  $ sudo apt update           
  Hit:1 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu oracular InRelease
  Hit:2 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu oracular-security InRelease

  Hit:5 https://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb stable InRelease
  4 packages can be upgraded. Run 'apt list --upgradable' to see them.
  [~]$ sudo apt dist-upgrade 
  Not upgrading yet due to phasing:
    python3-software-properties  software-properties-common  software-properties-gtk

  Not upgrading:
    libcanberra-pulse

  Summary:
    Upgrading: 0, Installing: 0, Removing: 0, Not Upgrading: 4
  Notice: Some packages may have been kept back due to phasing.


  
  So the only way would be to disable phased updates to actually do a release upgrade.
  That seems to be more complicated than expected so I would assume that I can do a release upgrade if I have all updates  installed except the phased ones.
