Possibly a dependency conflict of some kind. Maybe try updating from the
terminal to see if it works or at least gives a useful error message
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade && sudo apt full-upgrade

You could also check the contents of the /boot directory to see if the
kernel is actually there. If the kernel is there on the drive but not being
used to boot, then you could try running "sudo update-grub" and then
rebooting.
