This bug was fixed in the package console-setup - 1.108ubuntu15.2

---------------
console-setup (1.108ubuntu15.2) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Reorganize and correct console-setup, keyboard-setup and setvtrgb along the
    lines of the logic in 16.04: (LP: #1591622, #1593156)
    - debian/console-setup-linux.setvtrgb.service: don't require being run
      before system-getty.slice.
    - debian/keyboard-configuration.links: both console-setup and
      keyboard-setup systemd units should be installed to sysinit.target rather
      than multi-user.
    - debian/keyboard-configuration.keyboard-setup.service: move loadkeys call
      at local-fs-pre.target and in this more suitable location.
    - debian/keyboard-configuration.console-setup.service: move to running
      after the screen, keyboard, and filesystems are ready and set up all of
      what may still need to be done to configure the virtual consoles
      appropriately: set a final keymap, font, etc.

console-setup (1.108ubuntu15.1) xenial; urgency=medium

  * debian/console-setup-linux.setvtrgb.service: port the upstart job for
    applying our preferred color settings to a systemd unit so it gets run.
    This will fix debconf prompts on console being extra ugly. (LP: #1576893)
  * debian/console-setup-linux.links: enable our setvtrgb service in sysinit.
  * debian/keyboard-configuration.links: fix link source for console-setup
    service. (LP: #1572697)
  * debian/control: add dh-systemd to Build-Depends.
  * debian/keyboard-configuration.keyboard-setup.service: also enable
    keyboard-setup as a systemd service so we can have proper keymaps enabled
    in VTs. (LP: #1579267)
  * debian/keyboard-configuration.links: enable keyboard-setup service.
