Ah, thanks for that additional information! I was able to recreate this issue by upgrading from bionic to focal and then running 'sudo ./focal --frontend DistUpgradeViewText' in the folder in which the release upgrader was extracted e.g. '/tmp/ubuntu-release-upgrader-nbgn2n5o'.

Perhaps the distribution upgrade process should remove the sources.list.distUpgrade file after the release upgrade successfully completes.
