Hm, doesn't that third line make the heroic assumptions that there were a non x86_64 repository? So I think the error below may be a side effect. Just because you are getting armhf packages from some repositories does not imply you get them from all, methinks. apt may happily look at the binary:all packages which it could install, but then get sidelined by their dependencies which it may not.
