So I've been trying to update to Ubuntu 22.04 development release but certain errors are coming. Whenever I try to update the following error comes ->


abc@ubuntu:~$ update-manager -d

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/tmp/ubuntu-release-upgrader-6ylluso8/Ubuntu.info'

Is there any solution to this?
I guess a file named Ubuntu.info is missing.


EDIT:
I was asked to disable 3rd party repos by @vanadium, but the results remained unchanged.

Just was surfing through internet and found the solution to this problem, and my Ubuntu 20.04 was successfully upgraded to 22.04.
The solution can be found here.


Instead of a file called “Pop.info”(as given in the answer) make a file called “Ubuntu.info”
