This seems to end up in dependency hell too :) google-earth requires lsb-core:i386 which does not recognize the already installed alien v 8.88 (which is arch:all), but still insists on alien >= 8.36 (but no arch specified).
(I wonder what prevents lsb-core from being arch:all.) There seems to be at least one other problem because (commandline) 'ap-get install lsb-core:i386' yields The following packages have unmet dependencies: lsb-core:i386 : Depends: lsb-invalid-mta:i386 (>= 4.1+Debian9) but it is not installable or mail-transport-agent:i386 Depends: binutils:i386 but it is not going to be installed Depends: bsdmainutils:i386 but it is not going to be installed Depends: cron:i386 or cron-daemon:i386 Depends: make:i386 but it is not going to be installed Depends: psmisc:i386 but it is not going to be installed Depends: alien:i386 (>= 8.36) but it is not installable Depends: python:i386 (>= 2.6.6-7~) but it is not going to be installed Depends: time:i386 but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
