Problem Description
========================
I installed Ubuntu16.04 on PowerVM system and try to run hvcsadmin (hypervisor virtual console server administration utility) command but it seems me broken .

Step to reproduce
=======================
1- Install  Ubuntu16.04 on PowerVM
2- Install powerpc-utils  in the system 
3- run hvcsadmin  utility

Expected Result:

it should work on PowerVM environment

Actual Result:

Fails to run complain about systool .

LOG:

root at system:~# hvcsadmin -all
Can't exec "systool": No such file or directory at /usr/sbin/hvcsadmin line 259.
systool:  No such file or directory at /usr/sbin/hvcsadmin line 259.
root at system:~# hvcsadmin -noisy
Can't exec "systool": No such file or directory at /usr/sbin/hvcsadmin line 259.
systool:  No such file or directory at /usr/sbin/hvcsadmin line 259.
root at system:~# rpm -qa | grep hvcsadmin
The program 'rpm' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
apt-get install rpm
root at system:~# dpkg -l | grep  powerpc-utils 
ii  powerpc-utils                     1.2.18+r1.1.3-24ubuntu1         ppc64el      Various utilities for Linux/PowerPC
root at system:~#

Note : If i install libsysfs2 sysfsutils packages than it seems me
working so i think when we install powerpc-utils  it should have
dependencies about sysfsutils.
