Well, it repeatably fails for me on three completely different systems:
* laptop (pentium-4m)
* pentium-d
* amd athalon
Here is the output on one machine:
Unpacking watchdog (from .../watchdog_5.2.5-2_i386.deb) ...
Setting up watchdog (5.2.5-2) ...
udev active, devices will be created in /dev/.static/dev/
Restarting watchdog daemon...done.
[here it hangs forever]
