Bug Description
when I try to upgrade ubuntu from 16.04 to 18.04, it fails when it's setting new software channels. I then get the error that from apt that an error occurred (depicted as a red circle with a white horizontal line at the top-right). It says that I should run apt-get in my terminal to know what was worng with my packages. So I tried to run apt-get and tried running 'sudo apt-get -f install' or 'sudo apt-get -qq upgrade' in my terminal, but nothing happened. I get no input in my terminal. So I am lost right now. my computer still works perfectly, but I just can't upgrade my distribution version anymore! please help! :(
