Bug description:
If a user wants 32-bit only wine, a reasonable way to get it would be
to install wine1.4:i386. However, this is not possible on amd64.
Currently apt spews this complaint:
wine1.4:i386 : Depends: wine1.4-i386:i386 (= 1.4.1-0ubuntu4)
Recommends: gnome-exe-thumbnailer:i386 but it is not
installable or
kde-runtime:i386 but it is not going to be
installed
Recommends: ttf-droid:i386 but it is not installable
Recommends: ttf-liberation:i386 but it is not installable
Recommends: ttf-umefont:i386 but it is not installable
Recommends: ttf-unfonts-core:i386 but it is not installable
Recommends: ttf-wqy-microhei:i386 but it is not installable
Recommends: winetricks:i386 but it is not going to be
installed
Recommends: xdg-utils:i386 but it is not installable
gnome-exe-thumbnailer, xdg-utils, and the fonts are arch: all and
should be marked multiarch:foreign to indicate that it is ok to
install them for the nonnative wine1.4 (they are cross-arch shell
scripts). winetricks is currently arch i386 and amd64 and should
probably be marked arch: all (especially for upcoming arm wine).
apt will then freak out about conflicts and give up. apt-get --no-
install-recommends wine1.4:i386, however, will actually complete. I'm
not sure this is correct behavior for apt, as in principle it should
be able to figure out that it can succeed with the command by omitting
recommended packages.
