libgudev was split from systemd into its own project. As a result,
some packages have picked up a dependency on libgudev. However,
libgudev cannot be installed on your system because it conflicts with
eudev.

To clear up your dependencies, try having whatever eudev package
contains libgudev.so provide libgudev.
