Please can you explain why you think this is a bug? As far as I understand, you now need to install upstart-sysv if you want to keep your system running upstart on Vivid. But ordinarily users should not be affected because they should all have been migrated to systemd, unless there is a bug that prevents that happening? If this is the case, please can you explain what installer you used to install your system? Can you reproduce steps in a virtual machine that lead to the system becoming broken on a dist-upgrade?
