I am using Ubuntu 17.10. apt
says there is 1 package not updated, but there are no updates.
These are the commands that I ran:
$ sudo apt update
1 package can be upgraded. Execute 'apt list --upgradable' to see them.
$ apt list --upgradable
gtk-communitheme/artful,artful 18.04~wip1+201803130047+0c20cd0~ubuntu17.10.1 all
$ sudo apt upgrade
0 upgraded, no errors.
$ sudo apt dist-upgrade
0 upgraded, no errors.
apt package-management upgrade updates

Best guess
My best guess is you suffered a bug fix for this bug: Want to update from 17.04 to 18.04, but do-release-upgrade fails.
Essentially the OP was using 17.04, wanted to upgrade to 17.10 but it took him/her to 18.04 which is invalid because it's not an officially sanctioned version yet.
It would appear rather than taking away the upgrade to 18.04 option the programmers simply suppressed the option from upgrading to 18.04. That said I would only upgrade to 18.04 in a quarantined environment (separate partition / non production) and extensive testing. Some ideas:
- Create a 18.04 Live USB with persistent storage.
- Boot from the USB and select "Try before Installing".
- Install your mission critical applications to the USB's persistent storage.
- Test your applications with a COPY of your data.
Do not test the programs on the real live data onsdX
.- Try out your USB keyboards and mice.
- Try out your printer(s).
- Access your favorite websites and download files.
- Test suspend and resume.
- Test Fn keys for volume and brightness.
- Make a keyboard shortcut and ensure it works ok.
- Test
systemd
,cron
and other system utilities. - If you've written scripts, copy them over and test them.
- Test
xrandr
functions you have used before. - Run CPU & RAM stress tests. System benchmarks might be helpful too.
- Remember 18.04 uses Unity 7.5 but 16.04 uses Unity 7.4 I think.
- Of course you should test Anything else you can think of
This will not work because the update has nothing to do with ubuntu but with a theme, and ubuntu 18.04 is BETA so it would NEVER need that for an update.

Answer:
I used a ppa that was no longer there, but had an update. For some reason it didn't update that into the cache, however after removing the ppa it did not longer have an 'impossible' update.
