Bug Description
do-release-upgrade fails to calculate an upgrade path.
After removing some colliding packages, one last collision remains in /var/log/
Broken libsensors-
Trying to remove libsensors4:amd would result in removal of 434 depending packages, including the whole desktop environment.
Is it safe to remove libsensors4 in order to proceed with the upgrade?

After removing libsensors4:amd and 434 packages depending on this, the release upgrade proceeds.
Sorry for the confusion.
