I managed to perform the upgrade checking the logs (/var/log/dist-
upgrade/apt.log) and solving the issues with "Broken" packages. However,
it would be much better to have this step included into the upgrade
asking a) whether to remove the packages that prevent the upgrade (and
listing the packages) or b) skip the upgrade to manually solve the
issue.

Moreover, after the upgrade I ended up with broken apt-get (it required libc, 
which required gcc-base) and had to manually download the libraries and install 
them via dpkg.
As it found, I was not the first who faced this issue, but it can be and should 
be considered during the upgrade process.

Thanks for your time and for the free Linux OS, hope this feedback helps
to improve the reliability of the installation process.
