1. lvm-common fails to install.

2. lvm2 depends on lvm-common.

3. amd64 is no Debian architecture.

So now the problem:

The lvm-common postinstallation script does not contain this commands
but calls /usr/sbin/update-devfsd. This script does call find and
invoke-rc.d with devfsd which fails on your machine.
