I've uploaded conntrack-tools 1:1.4.4+snapshot20161117-6ubuntu2 to bionic. This version of the package defaults to using 'Systemd on' for conntrackd config. I tested upgrades from xenial to bionic with the following in the bionic config /etc/conntrackd/conntrackd.conf:
1) 'Systemd on' # upgrade is successful
2) Systemd config not specified # upgrade is successful (defaults to 'Systemd on')
3) 'Systemd off' # upgrade fails as expected with timeout
I'll submit the patch back to Debian as well.
Note: The package in my ppa now has the new package version.
