Can you share the contents of your sources.list file? Also, what version of distro-info-data do you have installed (apt policy distro-info-data)? The error message suggests to me that that /usr/share/distro-info/ubuntu.csv is messed up some how.

Why report maked via ubuntu-bug update-manager-core can be Incomplete?

I replaced the contents of the file /usr/share/distro-info/ubuntu.csv with:

version,codename,series,created,release,eol,eol-server,eol-esm
4.10,Warty Warthog,warty,2004-03-05,2004-10-20,2006-04-30
5.04,Hoary Hedgehog,hoary,2004-10-20,2005-04-08,2006-10-31
...
24.04 LTS,Noble Numbat,noble,2023-10-12,2024-04-25,2029-05-31,2029-05-31,2034-04-25
24.10,Oracular Oriole,oracular,2024-04-25,2024-10-10,2025-07-10

from another installation
and re run do-release-upgrade -d

The update process has started successfully.
I don’t understand what could have changed the file /usr/share/distro-info/ubuntu.csv
