guivercit would be easier to read if pastebin'd and not pasted like that.  The command you used looks correct (do-release-upgrade) for upgrades.  Have you made changes to python?  If you have, those changes should be reverted before attempting upgrade02:00
guivercfizzlifax, ^02:00
fizzlifaxI tried to upgrade python2 to 3 but it failed02:02
fizzlifaxI removed both python and python3 and reinstalled but no chance02:03
fizzlifaxI dont know how to resolve this problem02:03
guivercKubuntu 18.04 had both python2 & python3 already installed so I don't know what you meant by 'tried to upgrade', but that'll be your issue. you need to fully undo whatever changes you did.02:09
guivercAnother alternative is to 'upgrade via re-install'  download & write Kubuntu 20.04 to thumb-drive media; install using Manual; select your existing partition(s) but DO NOT FORMAT any; it'll note your packages, erase system directories, install then attempt to add back your additional packages you'd added if available for new release.   It doesn't touch user files UNLESS you format. You should of course backup first; it's easy to make a mistake02:12
guivercNote: if you used encryption; I've not tested that method with encryption (i've had it work; but it required extra work and I'd not like to advise; my prior comment is best read assuming no-encryption)02:13
fizzlifaxThanks a lot - no I dont use encryption... - I will try to make this manually but I am afraid that the python problems will not be resolved - ???02:17

Mamarokif "low hardware" means a 32-bit system then Mint is the only option, Kubuntu doesn't support this anymore08:41
alkisgLinuxMint is based on Ubuntu, so it doesn't support 32bit. LMDE is based on Debian, which does08:43
Mamarokalkisg: hm, my bad, was the Debian based Mint discontinued?09:02
Mamarokor is this what you call LMDE? stil Mint, no?09:03
alkisgMamarok: Yes LMDE is the debian based mint, and no I don't think it's abandoned. But they release after debian, so I guess they'll have a new release this autumn09:03
alkisgIn general, linuxmint just adds cinammon (with bad packaging), so it's not worth considering at all09:04
alkisgThe official ubuntu flavors or debian blends are much more reliable09:04
Mamaroktrue, I would also choose Debian rather than Mint09:08
Mamarokand the only difference are the additionaal codecs that Debian doesn't ship in the default directory, but thee are additional sources that can be added09:09
Mamarokthere* are09:09
diogenes_there are also non-free Debian isos which ship both codecs and non-free firmware.09:11
alkisgIf I understood it correctly, the debian bullseye livecd started using the nice calamares installer, and the non-free variant of it also has the firmware, which should make things very easy for novice users09:14
diogenes_they use calamares since 9.09:15
alkisgReally? Hmm, maybe I remember the "graphical debian-installer frontend" of the normal installation cd then; I haven't noticed calamares bfore...09:18
diogenes_it's only for live isos.09:19
