updated the description with more details
** Description changed:
- ubuntu-core-launcher and hence snapd and hence systemd is installed from
- the official repo...
+ If you have the `systemd` package installed, the upgrade of sssd-common
+ fails because it thinks systemd is used and the sssd.service exists
+ (which it tries to stop in the pre removal script).
+
+ In my case the systemd package was installed because at some point I
+ installed ubuntu-core-launcher (which pulled in systemd via snapd)...
+ All the package are from the official Ubuntu repo.
+
+ To resolve the problem I had to remove the part that tried to stop the
+ sssd.service from the prerm script in /var/lib/dpkg/info/sssd-
+ common.prerm
+
+ After that I also uninstalled ubuntu-core-launcher, snapd and systemd
+ for the time being...
