Do you have the output of the original update available? It's supposed
to get stopped in the preinst. See

  /var/lib/dpkg/info/libvirt-daemon-system.preinst

Maybe the new libvirt-bin got already unpacked and therefore the
service file removed? The output of /var/log/dpkg.log should tell us.

Laurent, maybe we even need to ship a libvirt-bin.service in the libvirt-bin
package to allow for the upgrade to work?
Cheers,
