Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The error that you are a reporting is a conflict between packages from the official Ubuntu archive and packages from a PPA. To resolve this situation please deactivate PPAs using the tool 'ppa-purge' which is provided by the ppa-purge package. Then try performing the release upgrade again. Thanks in advance!
