  upstart-sysv in xenial has a copy/paste error in the package
  description

Bug description:
  Looks like the description of upstart-sysv was a copy/paste from the systemd-sysv package.
  The text talks confusingly about installing systemd-sysv in the last paragraph...

  
  Description-en: event-based init daemon - SysV links
   upstart is a replacement for the /sbin/init daemon which handles
   starting of tasks and services during boot, stopping them during
   shutdown and supervising them while the system is running.
   .
   This package provides the manual pages and links needed for upstart
   to replace sysvinit. Installing systemd-sysv will overwrite /sbin/init with a
   link to upstart.
