How can i fix this?

Solution 1

Try this command before you run do-release-upgrade -d

sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-keyring

Solution 2

I think you need to run do-release-upgrade -d with 'sudo'

You don't need sudo because all do-release-upgrade does is checks if a release upgrade exists, and it doesn't install anything.

Yes, this worked! Can you explain why ubuntu-keyring needs to be reinstalled?
