What is the right origin? How'd you determine that? You cannot really
know whether lsb-release is wrong or something else (or nothing).
Imagine a user with artful and bionic sources, and lsb-release from
bionic - he might be running
(a) bionic
(b) artful with wrong lsb-release
(c) some
Maybe we can just check that the lsb-release package has the right
package origin? I'm thinking of something along the lines of

dev/ubuntu/bionic/apport/ubuntu/view/head:/backends/packaging-apt-
dpkg.py#L166.
This way we could exit out of the upgrade
I'm not sure how we'd achieve that. Figuring out which release is the
correct one is a much harder problem than figuring out that the release
we're being told is not the same as in sources.list.

While this looks fine perhaps this should be fixed in the function
get_dist() from DistUpgrade/utils.py that way the release-upgrader
tarball for the wrong next release never gets downloaded.

Sorry, I hit comment before finishing, anyways, I ran the following commands in
the terminal: sudo apt-get install aptitude
sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
This upgraded me fully to 17.04 and then I was able to upgrade fully to 17.10
right after. Thanks

Thanks for the guidance, I was able to upgrade after doing a couple of
things. First I changed the file names from Xenial to Zesty in
/etc/apt/sources.list. After that I tried to upgrade the dist to 17.10
