This is wrong, you actually need to remove /usr/sbin/lxd which is the symlink you added to /bin/true.  The *real* lxd command (at the renamed location) will have been removed by dpkg when the lxd-installer package is removed by the unminimize script.  (dpkg follows diversions.)

I assume this bit of code hasn't been tested in anger as this would have been obvious
