This sounds like bug 871083 at first, but it's not -- the i386 and the amd64 version are identical:

$ wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/u/udev/libudev0_175-0ubuntu9.3_amd64.deb
$ wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/u/udev/libudev0_175-0ubuntu9.3_i386.deb
$ dpkg-deb -x libudev0_175-0ubuntu9.3_amd64.deb amd64
$ dpkg-deb -x libudev0_175-0ubuntu9.3_i386.deb i386
$ md5sum {i386,amd64}/usr/share/doc/libudev0/changelog.Debian.gz
52924757139bdc07089670b090eed0d8 i386/usr/share/doc/libudev0/changelog.Debian.gz
52924757139bdc07089670b090eed0d8 amd64/usr/share/doc/libudev0/changelog.Debian.gz

So perhaps you have different versions of libudev0 for i386 and amd64 installed? Can you please give me the output of "dpkg -l | grep libudev" from a terminal?
