As a workaround you can add the yakkety repositories (with a very low
priority in order to not accidentally upgrade any other part of your
system) and install the ZFS packages from there. They are pretty self-
contained and shouldn't interfere with anything else. Look for "apt
pinning" for details on this approach.

I have the following yakkety packages installed on my xenial system in
order to use ZFS successfully:

$ dpkg -l | grep 0.6.5.8 | awk '{print $1 " " $2 " " $3 " " $4}'
ii libnvpair1linux 0.6.5.8-0ubuntu4 amd64
ii libuutil1linux 0.6.5.8-0ubuntu4 amd64
ii libzfs2linux 0.6.5.8-0ubuntu4 amd64
ii libzpool2linux 0.6.5.8-0ubuntu4 amd64
ii spl 0.6.5.8-2 amd64
ii spl-dkms 0.6.5.8-2 all
ii zfs-dkms 0.6.5.8-0ubuntu4 amd64
ii zfs-doc 0.6.5.8-0ubuntu4 all
ii zfs-zed 0.6.5.8-0ubuntu4 amd64
ii zfsutils-linux 0.6.5.8-0ubuntu4 amd64
