I had forgotten I had submitted this bug report, and just encountered
this same issue when I upgraded from 21.04 to 21.10. I reported my
problem with this latest upgrade on the Ubuntu Mate Community forum. At
least I'm consistent: the post there reads almost exactly like my bug
report here. :)
Brian, thanks for the responses. Please see my last action:
root@ubuntu64:~# apt-get purge lldb
This allowed do-release-upgrade to finally proceed. gnome-shell and
gnome-shell-common were wild gooses. The key ingredient seems to be
this:
root@ubuntu64:~# apt-get upgrade
The following packages
Well this should have been fixed with this upload:
ubuntu-release-upgrader (1:18.10.11) cosmic; urgency=medium
* do-release-upgrade: do not run the release upgrade if either not all
updates are installed or a reboot is required due to a libc6 upgrade.
(LP: #1797209)
* debian/control:
It does seem that check-new-release-gtk will silently exit if there are
available updates. However, if you run it via the command line you'll
see the error.
$ /usr/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/check-new-release-gtk -d
Checking for a new Ubuntu release
Please install all available updates for your
Neither gnome-shell nor gnome-shell-common are currently phasing so that
is not the issue. Perhaps there is a disconnect between what update-
manager thinks is available and what apt does? Or maybe the pop up
regarding release upgrades raises even if do-release-upgrade won't run.

I just encountered this exact same scenario running Ubuntu Mate 19.04.
Software Updater believes all updates have been applied. I get the pop-
up saying 19.10 is available, I click the Upgrade button, and the dialog
disappears and nothing happens. Again, I drop to a command prompt:
I believe this bug affects me as well.
I see this:
jeff@starshine:~ $ apt-cache policy ubuntu-release-upgrader-gtk

Brian, thanks for the reply. I didn't get notified so I missed your
reply. I used my workaround to eventually update the VM, so I can no
longer test the failed upgrade. I'll try to remember if this happens
again. Here is the output of the command you requested:
guyr@ubuntu64:~$ apt-cache

Title:
Upgrade to 18.10 fails: Please install all
I was wondering how I could possible recreate this scenario.
Coincidentally, I received your update on the same day I learned that
19.04 was available. So, I started up the VirtualBox VM containing
Ubuntu Mate 18.10. I got a pop up telling me that 19.04, and asking if
I would like to upgrade. I
This was likely fixed (its hard to tell without log files) with the
following upload of ubuntu-release-upgrader for cosmic.

* DistUpgrade/DistUpgradeController.py: check all the python symlinks and
versions instead of the python
