Ran into this problem today on 16.04. Here's a brute-force hack that got
me past the problem. Attempt at your own risk:
# First, try to update:
sudo apt-get upgrade
# STOP if you don't see the following messages:
# Job for avahi-daemon.socket canceled.
# dpkg: warning: subprocess old pre-removal
Simple user who don't understand all that, I'm French and just using
Ubuntu but can't resolve problem by myself. Please find an easier way to
fix problems for me. Thanks...

This seems to be some kind of weird interaction with systemd
activation...
root@optane:/lib/systemd# systemctl stop avahi-daemon.socket
Job for avahi-daemon.socket canceled.
I think basically the issue is the service is immediately started again
due to activation.. i'm not sure why
Occurred during 1st Update to the install.

dnsconfd.prerm for more verbose console output and re-ran apt update &&
apt upgrade and it looks like it's failing here:
deb-systemd-invoke stop avahi-daemon.socket

In my case, I installed ubuntu-mate-desktop, then xfce4, was running in
xfce4 and did: (a) apt purge ubuntu-mate-desktop, (b) apt autoremove -
which removed among other packages the avahi-dnsconfd package.
