Unable to calculate update

Fixed an unresolved issue while calculating the update.

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

I suggest that you try the following:

Execute the command
sudo apt install gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-tiling-assistant

and then re-try the release upgrade.
If that still does not, work, provide the output of
tail -n 50 /var/log/dist-upgrade/apt.log
