> Just hit the exactly same issue while trying to upgrade from 19.04 to 19.10
No, that is not the same issue. In your case, the error message is *accurately* reporting that you have corrupted your python3 system install. /usr/bin/python3 and /usr/bin/python are not alternatives in Ubuntu, and changing them to be so is unsupported. The difference is that /usr/bin/python is not used by do-release-upgrade, so is not relevant to report on; and /usr/bin/python3 is. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825655 Title: do-release-upgrade fails with "Your python3 install is corrupted" if /usr/bin/python points to /etc/alternatives/python To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1825655/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
