Confirmed. I had the same issue test upgrading from Trusty to Xenial.

activate_insserv() in sysv-rc.postinst calls "insserv -v". However
insserv 1.14.0-5ubuntu3 as in Xenial does not ship a suitable executable
in a standard bin path. In the last merge, insserv 1.14.0-5ubuntu1's
changelog says "Move insserv out of system path to disuade package
maintainers from invoking it directly."

** Summary changed:

- package sysv-rc 2.88dsf-59.2ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
+ sysv-rc.postinst calls insserv by name, but insserv package does not provide the command in a bin directory
