Well, sure, you are telling dpkg to install and execute GNU/Hurd code
on a GNU/Linux system. That's not going to work. Even if you managed
to just extract the contents via something like multistrap or similar
you'll still be unable to execute this from GNU/Linux. You should
proably be looking into using QEMU or similar to run a GNU/Hurd system.
Closing, as this is not a bug in dpkg.
Thanks,
Guillem
