At least part of the problem here is that the ubuntu-release-upgrader has no support for the ubuntukylin-desktop meta package.

From main.log:

2016-10-12 18:48:07,325 DEBUG /openCache(), new cache size 75232
2016-10-12 18:48:07,326 DEBUG need_server_mode(): can not find a desktop meta package or key deps, running in server mode
2016-10-12 18:48:07,326 DEBUG checkViewDepends()

And from ubuntu-release-upgrader's DistUpgrade.cfg.trusty:

 10 # Distro contains global information about the upgrade
 11 [Distro]
 12 # the meta-pkgs we support
 13 MetaPkgs=ubuntu-desktop, kubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-core,
 14 xubuntu-desktop, ubuntustudio-desktop, mythbuntu-desktop,
 15 kubuntu-netbook, lubuntu-core, lubuntu-desktop, ubuntu-gnome-desktop,
 16 ubuntu-mate-core, ubuntu-mate-cloudtop, ubuntu-mate-desktop
