I was trying to update from focal fosa to jammy, but got

Could not calculate the upgrade

An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.


This was likely caused by:


    

  • Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu
    • 



Please use the tool 'ppa-purge' from the ppa-purge 
package to remove software from a Launchpad PPA and 
try the upgrade again.


If none of this applies, then please report this bug using the 
command 'ubuntu-bug ubuntu-release-upgrader-core' in a terminal. If 
you want to investigate this yourself the log files in 
'/var/log/dist-upgrade' will contain details about the upgrade. 
Specifically, look at 'main.log' and 'apt.log'.


Restoring original system state


Aborting

I checked this answer which suggest holds might be a problem but

apt-mark showhold

returns nothing

I tried with the GUI to deactivate the ppa links but it also didn't work

enter image description here

I went to check /var/log/dist-upgrade as suggested in the error and I have A TON of broken

I know I put a bunch of stuff in this machine, any advice on going back to "original state" to allow for upgrade?

Other than running ppa-purge one by one and trying to upgrade, is there any alternative?

This is my current setup

lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS
Release:    20.04
Codename:   focal

  • What release are you trying to upgrade? – Pilot6 Feb 23 '23 at 15:51
  • Fastest way to go back to original state is a fresh install. Since you have to remove all the unofficial packages and reinstall them in the upgraded system later, you safe a lot of time installing 22.04 fresh and then customize it depending on your needs. Or stay with 20.04, you have still 2 years of support left. – mook765 Feb 23 '23 at 16:16
  • Since your list of sources suggests that you want to run newer software, consider trying the 6-month releases of Ubuntu instead (like 22.10) so you don't need all those extra sources that break your system. – user535733 Feb 23 '23 at 16:39
  • ended up biting the bullet and doing ppa-purge. I started with remmina (sudo ppa-purge ppa:remmina-ppa-team/remmina-next) because this faced similar issues and the install proceeded normally with a bunch of Y/N for configs that had modified (e.g., stop looking for printers in network). – Matias Andina Feb 23 '23 at 17:11

It took a while and some frustration but:

  1. I went for ppa-purge remmina as my comment says
  2. Install went fine with a few Y/N questions

After reboot, I was trapped in the Log in loop.

I checked all the posts about it and my permissions looked fine, I didn't have lightdm and installing it only created problems (e.g., I was booting into terminal instead of UI). I uninstalled lightdm and continued checking for options.

Ever since I installed chrome-remote-desktop, my Ubuntu experience has been a nightmare of asking permissions for doing everything (log in, files, mount a USB flashdrive, ...). As suggested here the login loop can be related to chrome-remote-desktop. After:

sudo apt-get purge chrome-remote-desktop

I could finally log into the desktop version of jammy.

Because I had deactivated all ppa, some of that software was not installed in the new ubuntu release (e.g., inkscape). Rstudio was also not installed

Software that was installed and not functioning also needed

sudo apt-get --fix-broken install
