Public bug reported:

I tried to do `sudo do-release-upgrade`, but it fails everytime. I
already removed every custom repo and cleaned up
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/, I upgraded all packages and restarted the PC.
Nevertheless, the error always occurs.

The file that couldn't be read is just am empty file:

reichelt at reichelt-desktop:~$ sudo cat /var/log/dist-upgrade/apt-term.log
