Bug description:
When running a dist-upgrade on a ppc64el hypervisor running
jammy/caracal I ended up with nova-compute being removed.
Looks like there is an unmet dependency with libvirt-daemon-config-
network, if I try to reinstall nova I get
```
# apt install nova-compute nova-compute-kvm nova-compute-libvirt

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libvirt-daemon-system : Depends: libvirt-daemon-config-network (= 8.0.0-1ubuntu7.14) but 8.0.0-1ubuntu7.11 is to be installed
Recommends: dmidecode but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Looks like libvirt ppc64el is at 8.0.0-1ubuntu7.14 but that libvirt-
daemon-config-network is behind at 8.0.0-1ubuntu7.11
