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.
