Bug#903249: udev 239-5 fails to configure

[Michael Hatzold]

Additional info:

To reproduce the apt error message I issued ->

# dpkg --configure -a
udev (239-5) wird eingerichtet ...
[ 4681.851284] systemd[1]: /lib/systemd/system/glances.service:3: Invalid

dpkg: Abhängigkeitsprobleme verhindern Konfiguration von upower:
  upower hängt ab von udev; aber:
   Paket udev ist noch nicht konfiguriert.

dpkg: Fehler beim Bearbeiten des Paketes upower (--configure):
  Abhängigkeitsprobleme - verbleibt unkonfiguriert
Fehler traten auf beim Bearbeiten von:
  udev
  upower
