** Description changed:
+ [Impact]
+
+ In general, when an upgrade fails because of a denied package removal
+ (due to matching entry in the package removal denylist), the upgrade is
+ aborted without a user-facing / friendly message.
+
+ If a user installed a system with e.g. 20.04 and installed
+ postgresql-12, then upgraded to jammy without removing postgresql-12,
+ and then later attempts to upgrade to noble, the upgrade will fail
+ because apt will calculate that postgresql-12 needs to be removed in
+ order to satisfy all other deps.
+
+ Hence, users in this situation will have a failed upgrade attempt and no
+ helpful message.
+
+ [Test Plan]
+
+ Create a LXD container running Focal:
+
+ $ lxc launch ubuntu:focal focal
+ $ lxc shell focal bash
+
+ Then, install postgresql, and upgrade to Jammy:
+
+ $ apt install -y postgresql
+ $ do-release-upgrade
+
+ After upgrading to Jammy, attempt to upgrade to Noble:
+
+ $ do-release-upgrade -d
+
+ The upgrade will fail because the calculated upgrade requires removing
+ postgresql-12. With the patch, a friendly message should be displayed
+ explaining this.
+
+ [Where problems could occur]
+
+ This patch adds some extra logic when displaying a message after an
+ upgrade aborts due to a problem with the calculated upgrade. Mistakes
+ with this patch would probably affect the message displayed to the user
+ in such cases.
+
+ [Original Description]
+
When running sudo do-release-upgrade -d

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'.
