I tried to follow Can I upgrade my existing Ubuntu installation in WSL from 16.04 to 18.04?

by

sudo do-release-upgrade -d

(I managed to update from ubuntu 14 to 16 by the above command) I got

Traceback (most recent call last):

    from UpdateManager.Core.MetaRelease import MetaReleaseCore

Original exception was:

    from UpdateManager.Core.MetaRelease import MetaReleaseCore
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/UpdateManager/Core/MetaRelease.py", line 25, in <module>

sudo apt -f purge grub-pc
sudo apt -f purge linux-image*

won't help, I got

apt: relocation error: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libapt-pkg.so.5.0: symbol _ZNKSt7__cxx1112basic_stringIcSt11char_traitsIcESaIcEE7compareERKS4_, version GLIBCXX_3.4.21 not defined in file libstdc++.so.6 with link time reference

so I wonder any solutions
