Public bug reported:

I'm running Ubuntu 19.10 and got a message prompting me to upgrade to
20.04. I clicked the "Upgrade now" (or something similar) button and
then nothing happens at all.

Looking in the journal, I see:

jun 22 08:19:00 grubby check-new-release-gtk[27508]: Checking for a new Ubuntu 
release
jun 22 08:19:00 grubby check-new-release-gtk[27508]: Please install all 
available updates for your release before upgrading.
jun 22 08:19:00 grubby systemd[4266]: update-notifier-release.service: Main 
process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
jun 22 08:19:00 grubby systemd[4266]: update-notifier-release.service: Failed 
with result 'exit-code'.
jun 22 08:19:00 grubby systemd[4266]: Failed to start Notification regarding a 
new release of Ubuntu.


I suspect this is the reason nothing happens, but that should really be 
reported to the user graphically, rather than just in the journal.
