package udev 175-0ubuntu9.5 failed to install/upgrade: package udev is already installed and configured

[Kent]

Performing updates after a clean install. Install manger appeared to be locked up & windows were not updating (title bar indicated when they had focus, but the remainder of the window was blank/white).

After performing a restart with the system in this state, the update manager notified me that a partila install was required. I followed the prompts & initiated the partial install. I was working on another workspace when the crash reports started.
