Works as designed. APT won't pull in additional backports for an
installed one, unless the additional backports are completely new, as
the release archive has a a higher priority.

Ok, so good that this appears to unstick things. Tentatively re-
assigning to apt as this feels like a resolver problem. I looked through
the debug output again and it's really not obvious why apt came to the
conclusion that it'd be preferable to switch from juju2 to juju1 over
just upgrading lxd
-t xenial-backports works:
root@malefic:~# apt install -t xenial-backports lxd lxd-client
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following package was automatically installed and is no longer required:
python3-lxc
Use 'apt autoremove'
This is pretty weird and I'm wondering if this is an apt bug rather than
a lxd packaging bug...
I tried to reproduce your environment here by installing the packages
that were conflicting on your system, then doing the LXD upgrade from
stock xenial over to backports:
```
root@backports:~# dpkg
If that approach doesn't work, the next try would probably be to specify
exact version matches for all those packages to take another part of the
APT upgrade calculation out of the equation...
