This happens because Ubuntu turned on multiarch support, allowing users
to install packages from other architectures.

You are using AMD64 version of eagle 5.11.0-3, and an architecture
independent version of eagle-data 5.11.0-3ubuntu1

The new version of eagle 5.11.0-3ubuntu1  is not available on AMD64.
However, AMD64 users can install the i386 version.

Here are some news stories on it:

http://www.ubuntugeek.com/new-features-in-ubuntu-11-10-oneiric.html


I'm not sure how Ubuntu plans on doing this - I think users expect for "sudo 
apt-get install eagle" to just work, but right now it will require some 
different steps:

$ echo foreign-architecture i386 | sudo tee /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/multiarch
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install eagle:i386


apparently the first command above isn't necessary if you are using Oeneric > 
beta1
