I see how the wording is misleading for this report and appreciate ideas
to better phrase it.
It is not the concurrent installation of libkpmcore12 and libkpmcore13
that is being reported here, but the concurrent installation of either
package for multiple architectures. This is supposedly possible due to
the Multi-Arch: same declaration, but it actually produces an unpack
error from dpkg due to shared files with varying content.
How about:
{% if packages | length > 1 %}
{{ packages | ... }} are declared Multi-Arch: same, but each of them
fails to coinstall with itself.
{% else %}
{{ packages | ... }} is declared Multi-Arch: same, but fails to
coinstall.
{% endif %}
