Usually, Ubuntu uses upstart. So, there should be a
/etc/init/libvirt-bin.conf which defines the libvirt daemon upstart
job.

I'm not sure whether the configure script detects upstart and installs
the upstart files automatically, though.

I guess that you tried to run "sudo /usr/sbin/libvirtd start"?! This
won't work as "/start" is not a valid non-option command line argument
as the error message already told you.

"sudo start libvirt-bin" is a shortcut method which does the same, BTW.
