Looks like an issue with part of the teamviewerd (which isn't part of the Ubuntu archive) package:

However I removed teamviewer alltogether and the "packages failed to

It now looks like there is an issue with the package that provides the smfpd service:

insserv: Starting smfpd depends on ondemand and therefore on system facility `$all' which can not be true!
