the fix for bug 1668847 seems to cause a removal of systemd-sysv (and installation of upstart) in the ubuntu core snap builds, which makes teh build fail now.
a log of the last successful build of the core snap: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/313520770/buildlog_snap_ubuntu_xenial_amd64_core_BUILDING.txt.gz
a log of a current failing build: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/313704330/buildlog_snap_ubuntu_xenial_amd64_core_BUILDING.txt.gz
it removes locales properly but then tries to also remove systemd-sysv in the lb_chroot_archives step
