The issue you are seeing, is that we've added the recently backported
version of systemd (230 vs 215) to our beagleboard.org debian jessie
repo:

https://packages.debian.org/jessie-backports/systemd

Since one of the systemd 230 dependices requires another tool to be
installed, for a full update via:

sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Then "libudev-dev" will correctly install.
