See attached screenshot I am able to reproduce this issue the sandbox environment fails. And launches an apport instance.

It appears that this feature has been broken for a while so should either be dropped or fixed.

This bug was fixed in the package ubuntu-release-upgrader - 1:17.10.3

---------------
ubuntu-release-upgrader (1:17.10.3) artful; urgency=medium

  * Remove --sandbox (aufs support) as it has been broken for some time and
    was rather unused. (LP: #1605259)

Come to find out you can also pass the --sandbox switch to update-manager so that needs fixing too.

  [ Steve Langasek ]
  * ubuntu-support-status: instead of checking the Release timestamp in
    the releases file for every single package on the system, get the
    release date from distro-info-data because it will always be the same.
    This speeds up the script by > 50% in testing.

  [ Brian Murray ]
  * update-manager: Clarify that the "-d" switch is only for upgrading from
    the latest supported release to the development release, not any release.
