dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting:
 failed to fstat previous diversions file: No such file or directory
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)

Workaround (thanks to wgrant):
 sudo ln -s /etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.lxc-start /etc/apparmor.d/disable/
 sudo apparmor_parser -R /etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.lxc-start

Then it should work.

Ideally we'd be able to keep apparmor involved.
