Public bug reported:

The GUI warned that ubuntu-minimal could not be located.

The console version showed this:

"""
After updating your package information, the essential package 
'ubuntu-minimal' could not be located. This may be because you have 
no official mirrors listed in your software sources, or because of 
excessive load on the mirror you are using. See /etc/apt/sources.list 
for the current list of configured software sources. 
In the case of an overloaded mirror, you may want to try the upgrade 
again later. 


Restoring original system state

Aborting
"""

This could possibly be caused by me using a custom APT mirror (apt-
cacher-ng).

Replacing all of `MY_MIRROR` with `nl.archive.ubuntu.com` in
sources.list seems to do the trick. The console do-release-upgrade now
continues (and later aborts on disk space issues with /boot, but that
was easily fixed as well).
