Hi,
sorry for seeing this so late.
I retried this (upgrades and install) a few times on xenial containers but 
never hit this.

You could try to re-install and fix up packages in general via:

$ apt install --re-install libpq-dev
$ apt install -f

If that is still an issue please report if the above helped and if it
doesn't how exactly it failed (all output while running the above).

** Changed in: postgresql-9.5 (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete
