Public bug reported:

When trying to upgrade Ubuntu from 14.04 to 16.04, the upgrader errors out.
Not sure why it's happening.

I am on Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS
I want to upgrade to 16.04 LTS

To upgrade I ran the update from the UI first and when that didn't work
I tried: 'sudo do-release-upgrade' from the terminal

The last few lines in the terminal when it errors out are:

Checking package manager
Reading package lists... Done    
Building dependency tree          
Reading state information... Done
Building data structures... Done

Could not calculate the upgrade

An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.

This can be caused by: 
* Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu 
* Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu 
* Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu 

If none of this applies, then please report this bug using the 
command 'ubuntu-bug ubuntu-release-upgrader-core' in a terminal.
