Reviewing the files from your upgrade attempt you seem to have enabled a PPA that provides Xorg packages. This will prevent the upgrade as that PPA contains different versions of packages essential to Ubuntu. The page, https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa, contains details on to how to revert to the official Xorg packages for the xorg-edgers PPA. Instructions for reverting to official Xorg packages should be similar for the PPA that you have enabled. Thanks.

Damn... How many duplicates have to get created before this issue gets fixed...

It's not just that the do-release-upgrade should automatically handle what is needed to be done - it also fails even after I manually purge and remove the PPA with python3 requirements.
