    You have many non-Ubuntu (eg. debian) sources listed in your output - these will create problems, esp. with do-release-upgrade. All non-Ubuntu packages should be removed if you want a clean release-upgrade (non-Ubuntu packages won't have Ubuntu compliant version numbering so the chance of success will not be great), so a clean (or dirty [no-format]) install would be easier. If you want to do-release-upgrade, you need to full-upgrade before you do it (ie. fix all problems first).

    You have many non-Ubuntu (eg. debian) sources listed in your output - these will create problems, esp. with do-release-upgrade. All non-Ubuntu packages should be removed if you want a clean release-upgrade (non-Ubuntu packages won't have Ubuntu compliant version numbering so the chance of success will not be great), so a clean (or dirty [no-format]) install would be easier. If you want to do-release-upgrade, you need to full-upgrade before you do it (ie. fix all problems first).
