Hi Sheryl. Unfortunately this is not a SysV issue. The problem is with the Ubuntu package manager trying to install the sysv-rc package, not with the SysV software itself.

As this appears to be an issue with the sysv-rc package on Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial, please report a bug to the Ubuntu developers here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sysvinit/+bugs

Hello,

I am currently upgrading my other computer to Ubuntu 16.04. I got a message that said "Could not install sysv-rc. Consider submitting a bug report." It also said, "subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1."

I searched the internet, and some people seem to have made similar reports elsewhere.

I found this link by search the app in synaptic, so I am guessing you this is the group to notify? Just thought I would let you know that it is still an issue, assuming you already know.

Thanks,
Sheryl Zettner
