Hi,
I beg your pardon that nobody found the time to look at this since I initially triaged it.
Especially since here even a suggested fix was provided we want to encourage and help.
I'm currently trying to clear out bugs that are dormant for too long, so lets take a look.

Status on the checked program:
Trusty to Artful : /lib/systemd/systemd-udevd is the binary
Due to changes in the nit system they are started differently, but that actually doesn't matter.
On Debian the name matches what Ubuntu has - so the issue as well as the fix applies to Debian as well.

IMHO - it isn't so important that the files are there.
The requiremend is
1. udevadm available
2. udev running
So a much better check could anyway be something like:
  systemctl is-active udev && which udevadm > /dev/null

For all but trusty that should be much better and we will find a pendant there once SRU'ing.
I'll prepare something for Debian and we can think on Fix and SRU once that has settled.
I'll link the Debian bug here soon ...
