This fix needs to be uploaded to zesty, and then xenial. See attached
debdiffs.

** Description changed:

  Hi,
  
  I have an upgrade activity that is failing with the following error
  message :
  
  The following packages have unmet dependencies:
-   lxd: Unknown dependency error
+   lxd: Unknown dependency error
  
  This is on xenial.
+ 
+ [Impact]  
+ In a lot of cases, landscape-client can't update packages on xenial machines 
if lxd is installed.
+ 
+ [Test case]
+ Register a fresh xenial machine with landscape.canonical.com. (Install 
landscape-client and run 'sudo landscape-config'). After the registration is 
done, go to Landscape, accept the pending computer and wait for package 
information to sync. Without the fix, there should be an upgrade for lxd and 
lxd-client available to the version that is in xenial-backports. With the 
patch, there won't be any upgrade available.
+ 
+ [Regression potnentials]
+ Users won't be able to install packages from backports. This is OK, though, 
since Landscape doesn't support that officially.
