What is happening is that the Ubuntu libpam-systemd package has a
post-install script that tries to communicate with the init system
(which it expects to be running, but isn't running inside the
libguestfs appliance).
I can reproduce this. I still think it's a bug in the Ubuntu dpkg
scripts though ..
