[Bug 2103373] Re: Upgrade from 22.04 to 24.04 failed - very unclear how to proceed

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!

Title:
  Upgrade from 22.04 to 24.04 failed - very unclear how to proceed

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

Bug description:
  I would LOVE to upgrade, but I am not a seasoned systems person.  It
  is failing and I have done so many things to verify that I have no
  held/broken/missing packages.  It is incredibly frustrating and time
  consuming to do major upgrades every two years.  Installing a brand
  new release is not preferred by many people, and an upgrade seems
  somewhat easy to do.  But, this is a common complaint, and I'm, again,
  formally filing a bug about it.
