I also had this problem. I was upgrading from 16 LTS -> 18 LTS -> 20 LTS

sudo mv 
/usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.systemd1.service{,.bak}
sudo apt purge systemd-shim

Do you want to continue? [Y/n] y
Abort.
(Not sure why that happened and I had to run it again to actually get it to 
purge).

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

(Software updater upgrade button does nothing...)

The following packages have been kept back:
  python-oauthlib python-openssl

sudo apt-get remove python-oauthlib python-openssl

Then it worked from GUI
