Much like Helga I had to install by manually downloading it from
Launchpad. Once installed and having set my environment to USE_DEVEL=1,
the notifier showed up and notified me that I have 243 days to install
the upgrade.

Upon clicking it, however, it yielded the same blank error window. This
is likely because it's not executing the `d` flag for an upgrade to
resolute.

To mitigate this, I created a wrapper of `do-release-upgrade` to have it
execute a renamed binary with the `-d` flag. I was able to ascertain
that it is, indeed, with the `-d`, passing the correct command line via
the pkexec dialog that appears. Unfortunately, after entering my
password, it yeilded the same blank window since it's unable to properly
execute the binary as I had renamed it:

do-release-upgrade -d -f DistUpgradeViewKDE

However, the goal in this case, since it's in questing and a proper test
is not possible as resolute is the development branch and, as such,
requires the `-d` flag to properly upgrade.

With this, I believe we can safely say it's verified as the proper
command line is being passed. As long as `do-release-upgrade` doesn't
change again, this will work after 26.04.1's release.
