Public bug reported: I'm upgrading my system from 22.04 using do-release-upgrade. I expected to be able to update my Kubuntu system with the upgrader.
The process fails at this stage: "An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade. " "The package 'kubuntu-desktop' is marked for removal but it is in the removal deny list." I don't know how to resolve this and would greatly appreciate some help.
