That's quite odd.
I think I have clues about that. In the postinst, you call dpkg-divert this way:
dpkg-divert --remove --package systemd --rename \
--divert /lib/lsb/init-functions.systemd /lib/lsb/init-functions
Well, according to dpkg-divert(8) manpage, it should rather be something
like:
dpkg-divert --package systemd --rename \
--remove /lib/lsb/init-functions
Indeed:
--package is an option with one argument;
--rename is an option with zero argument;
--remove is the action with one argument.
The order matters (options first, action last), and there should be not
additionnal argument. Contrary to the way you are calling dpkg-divers:
--remove takes one argument (not zero);
--divert is not needed for removal;
* the additionnal argument /lib/lsb/init-functions, which I guess
was taken from the command introducing the diversion, is an
implicit --add action, which is certainly not wanted here.
I did not test it, but correcting that call may be enough to solve that bug. In addition, for more reliability, I suggest that, instead of testing the version from which one is upgrading systemd, you rather test whether or not a diversion is present. In other words, test the situation you intend to change, not the version that is supposed to provide that situation:
if [ "$1" = "configure" ] && \
LC_ALL=C dpkg-divert --list /lib/lsb/init-functions | \
grep -q 'by systemd$'; then
dpkg-divert --package systemd --rename \
--remove /lib/lsb/init-functions
fi
