This happened to me during a "do-release-update -d" on my 19.04 system. I found a reference to a similar issue here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/146150/unable-to-fix-broken-packages-with-sudo-apt-get-install-f

I made a copy of /var/lib/dpkg/status then edited it to remove all the sections about the package libnvidia-compute-410. I then did "sudo apt --fix-broken install" which completed successfully. I have continued the update manually using "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade".

I would appreciate know if this was the correct thing to do and if I need to do any further repair to properly remove the broken package.
