Manually refreshing the apt-cacher-ng cache did not solve the issue.

The package list file at:

http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial-updates/main/binary-
amd64/Packages.gz

does not have cups-daemon in it. It seems it has not been updated with
the new dependency on the package servers.

The package list at:

http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial/main/binary-
amd64/Packages.gz

contains cups-daemon but with the outdated dependency.

I checked these files by manually pulling them via web browser. There is
no cache or proxy involved on my end.

Here's a couple of hacky oneliners to test with.

Check dists/xenial:
# wget -qO - 
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | 
zcat -c | grep -A 20 'Package: cups-daemon' | grep '^Package\|^Depends' | grep 
--color -E 'libcups2|$'

Check dists/xenial-updates:
# wget -qO - 
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial-updates/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz
 | zcat -c | grep -A 20 'Package: cups-daemon' | grep '^Package\|^Depends' | 
grep --color -E 'libcups2|$'

The second test returns nothing, since cups-daemon isn't in the package
list yet.
