After I got blocked, I was able to get around this bug by going to a tty
command prompt (ctrl-alt-fn) and running
sudo dpkg -r -a
then running
dpkg --configure -a
The configure step appeared to pick up at the failing local installation
and the rest of the upgrade continued.

You could try that too.
