Bug#869719: udev-234 doesn't execute when udev architecture != systemd architecture

[Jarek Kamiński]

Package: udev
Version: 234-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

I was running an uncommon configuration of 64-bit systemd and 32-bit
udev (strange omission I'm going to fix right now). It was running fine
until udev-234, when udev started being killed with SIGSYS. Setting
SystemCallArchitectures= (instead of native) in systemd-udevd.service
made udev working again.

While I understand the root cause was my error, udev is such critical it
would be great it was more robust :-)  Please consider setting
SystemCallArchitectures to the architecture of the udev package,
tightening the dependencies, or at least some sanity check during
installation.
