** Description changed: Was experiencing 2 issues. The first one is resolved but may be related to the one currently being faced, hence why I'm sharing it: Issue 1) Software-Updater prompts to upgrade to 20.04.1 LTS but clicking on upgrade causes the dialog box to disappear and does nothing in the - background. After fiddling around and updating and upgrading all - packages, I found that wine wasn't getting updated for some reason, so I - readded the PPAs for that and updated it via shell. This resolved the - issue and upon a restart, the Software-Updater upgrade to 20.04.1 LTS - started going to the actual upgrade screen upon clicking upgrade. + background.

I also tried using sudo do-release-upgrade and it generates the exact same error as using the GUI interface. All packages are up to date and nothing is identified as possible packages left to update, third party or otherwise. I also don't see unnecessary packages sitting on the system.
