Bug Description

Upgrading Ubuntu to version 18.04

Invalid package information

After updating your package information, the essential package 'ubuntu-minimal' could not be located. This may be because you have no official mirrors listed in your software sources, or because of excessive load on the mirror you are using. See /etc/apt/sources.list for the current list of configured software sources.
In the case of an overloaded mirror, you may want to try the upgrade again later.

The mirror of Ubuntu which you are using in an unofficial one and the release upgrader did not fall back to a generic one in your case. If you just want to upgrade please switch to an official mirror of the Ubuntu archive. You can find a list here:
