There is no need for me to attach my main.log since it is identical to
all main.log files posted here already.  There is an obvious problem
with this upgrade.  I'm struggling with it the third day and no solution
found so far.

OK!...

Right now when I'm writing I have a little change to positive in Update
Manager behavior.  It finally get prerequisites and looks like it is
proceeding further on.  To get to this point I had to disable
"universe"/"community supported" in my sources list.  I was prompted
that some of packages installed on my PC are no longer supported by
Canonical and I would be prompted to remove them after upgrade completed
or I would be able to choose keeping them if I wish.

Right now I am in the 3-d step - Fetching the Upgrades.  Let's hope this
was a solution.

I think if the Upgrade process is so picky to what is currently
supported by Canonical and what is not then the procedure should have
started from backing up a local sources.list file, replacing it with one
that can for sure satisfy the Upgrade and then to proceed with the
upgrade.  Then after the Upgrade is completed a user could be prompted
about changes in files support by Canonical and be given a choice either
to use a new sources.list or to get back to his own one.

Otherwise the Upgrade is a nightmare.  It was much easier for me just to
install it fresh.
