I had also tried the 'touch /sbin/udevadm.upgrade' workaround, and it
failed  to work. However, instead of deleting the '--convert-db' line in
/var/lib/dpkg/info/udev.postinst, I changed it from:

    udevadm info --convert-db

to:

    udevadm.upgrade info --convert-db

This let the install finish correctly, and the next time I edited the
udev.postinst file, dpkg had changed it back to the original. Now back
to fixing dependencies and then finishing my upgrade.
