[Bug 1912382] Re: package udev 229-4ubuntu21.29 failed to install/upgrade: pre-dependency problem - not installing udev

[Dan Streetman]

You appear to have not upgraded 'dpkg':

dpkg: regarding .../udev_229-4ubuntu21.29_amd64.deb containing udev, pre-dependency problem:
 udev pre-depends on dpkg (>= 1.17.14)
  dpkg is installed, but is version 1.17.5ubuntu5.8+esm1.

The latest version in Xenial is 1.18.4ubuntu1.6.

Please upgrade dpkg and you'll then be able to upgrade udev.
