You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I ran do-release-upgrade from a terminal. The process eventually failed
because of "too many errors". The root cause appears to be this:

Removing systemd-shim (9-1bzr4ubuntu1) ...
Removing 'diversion of /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.systemd1.service to /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.systemd1.service.systemd by systemd-shim'
dpkg-divert: error: rename involves overwriting '/usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.systemd1.service' with
  different file '/usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.systemd1.service.systemd', not allowed

I appear to have worked around this by manually removing
/usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.systemd1.service,
purging systemd-shim via `dpkg -P` and then doing `apt-get install -f`,
which completed without errors. After that, another `apt-get dist-
upgrade` was apparently enough to complete the upgrade.

** Affects: systemd-shim (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Incomplete
