This is a bug in udev only... if udev wants to diverts its own file it
must not use "--package udev" otherwise it instructs dpkg to divert the
file EXCEPT when it's provided by udev (which it does). So in reality
the replacement /sbin/udevadm is only there for a short time and
overwritten by the new udevadm.

And then the postinst reinstalls the old udevadm which has been copied
into /sbin/udevadm.upgrade (from the previous version) which supposedly
does not support the --convert-db option.

I suggest to use "--package fake-udev" or "--local" instead (but --local
is meant to be used by the admin in theory and might generate a lintian
warning).

** Changed in: dpkg (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
