Public bug reported:

Uuntu 15.10

> $ sudo apt-cache policy rsyslog

> rsyslog:
>   Installed: 8.12.0-1ubuntu2

Whenever I try to run any command that is to reinstall/fix rsylog or try to 
upgrade my Ubuntu server (by running `do-release-upgrade`) it ends in:

> Reading cache
> 
> Checking package manager
> 
> Setting up rsyslog (8.12.0-1ubuntu2)  ...

> The user 'syslog' is already a member of 'adm'.

Because of this I am locked on **Ubuntu 15.10**.

**Note**: I started getting this error after I upgraded from `15.04`
when system was setting up after upgrade to `15.10`. I was asked to
choose version and it said `N` for default or existing version and I
went for it.

What I expect: To peacefully upgrade my VPS Ubuntu version to 16.04.
