Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

I see a number of 3rd party packages, esp. from https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+ppa-packages

For best results with a release-upgrade, you should remove all 3rd party packages (bringing your system back to a pure Ubuntu one, ie. no 3rd party packages) then perform the upgrade. The tool ppa-purge can assist with this.

Likely related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1069133

(following from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1922546/comments/2)

[The use of oibaf ppa] will prevent the upgrade as that PPA contains package version numbers greater than the release to which you are upgrading. You can revert the PPA by installing the ppa-purge package from the official Ubuntu archive and then running 'sudo ppa-purge ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers'. After that you can try upgrading again and if it still fails open a new bug report. Thanks and good luck!
