I may have done just that, but I can't remember. I was eager to switch 
to LXD in Ubuntu 16.04 instead of using LXC and uvtool in Ubuntu 14.04.

I was surprised that it made the upgrade fail, though, and also 
surprised it prompted me to file a bug report. I thought it was just 
going to send an automated crash report.

I just rebooted, removed all of the orphaned packages, and cleaned up 
after the upgrade myself, and everything seems fine now.

Wait, what?  Perhaps he purposely had disabled it on purpose?

There could well be a libvirt bug as well, but if postinst fails ungracefully
if libvirt is stopped isn't that a packaging bug in uvtool-libvirt?
