Using the modified test case, a release upgrade from Trusty to Wily
would disable -proposed, I was able to verify the fix for this bug and
successfully update the sysv-rc package.

** Description changed:

  Test Case
  ---------
- Perform a release upgrade from Trusty to Wily
+ Perform a hokey upgrade from Trusty to Wily
  
- 1) Modify /etc/update-manager/meta-release URI line to be http://www.murraytwins.com/tmp/meta-release (This is only necessary because Vivid is still a supported release.)
- 2) Ensure /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades has Prompt=normal
- 3) Run do-release-upgrade -p (because only the proposed version of the release upgrader supports this upgrade path)
+ 1) Modify /etc/apt/sources.list from trusty to wily
+ 2) Run apt-get update
+ 3) Try to install the wily version of sysv-rc
  
  With the current version of sysvinit the upgrade process will fail with
  messages like:
  
  Setting up sysv-rc (2.88dsf-59.2ubuntu2) ...^M
  info: Reordering boot system, log to /var/lib/insserv/run-20160122T1444.log^M
  error: Something failed while migrating.^M
  ^M
  error: Unable to migrate to dependency based boot sequencing.^M
  ^M
  See http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts/DependencyBasedBoot for^M
  more information about dependency based boot sequencing. To^M
  
  With the version of the package in -proposed we should see no such
  error.
