Automatic updates(223) downloaded successfully but installation of some failed via GUI updater. dist-upgrade via terminal results in :

update-alternatives: using /usr/share/icons/gnome/scalable/places/ubuntu-logo.svg to provide /usr/share/icons/gnome/scalable/places/start-here.svg (start-here.svg) in auto mode.
update-alternatives: warning: skip creation of /usr/share/icons/gnome/256x256/places/start-here.png because associated file /usr/share/icons/gnome/256x256/places/ubuntu-logo.png (of link group start-here.svg) doesn't exist.

Starting update manager immediately after terminal session shows only 9 updates left to install and all updates then installed succesfully.

System now up to date.
