control: severity -1 serious

justification: libvirtd upgrades from stretch to buster break causing
apt to fail and requiring the admin to get the systemd units into a
consistent state before things can continue


Unfortunately based on discussion so far this is a complex bug to fix.
Ubuntu's solution is to drop the sysv scripts and to drop  Also= lines
in some of the units.

The systemd maintainers proposed that dropping Also as well as some
changes to move toward dh_systemd_start being used even when sysvinit
scripts are present would help this situation.  Unfortunately it at
least doesn't look like those changes are in debhelper for buster.
Systemd folks, do you have any suggestions  on how to approach this for
buster?
