Actually I don't know clear about why it needs three -dbg packages, 
looks they have been there since very early commits of udev. I suspect 
that udev/libudev/libgudev are independent each other, so they are 
shipped into different packages (base/-dev/-dbg). This patch only ships 
their source code to -dbg packages accordingly.
