So I just ran into this myself.  The history file showed that I
just did this to fix it:
Install: libfdisk1:amd64 (2.26.2-9, automatic)
Upgrade: initscripts:amd64 (2.88dsf-59.1, 2.88dsf-59.2),
sysvinit-utils:amd64 (2.88dsf-59, 2.88dsf-59.2), util-linux:amd64 (2.25.2-6, 2.26.2-9)

I did apt-get upgrade before that.  Since I didn't do an
dist-upgrade util-linux and sysvinit-utils weren't upgraded
but initscripts was.  It seems that I've been in that state since
may but never rebooted so didn't have that issue.

Can we get the depends/breaks between them so that you can't install a
combination that doesn't work?
