Hmm. I'm not sure what it is that you are seeing here. Alessio Treglia introduced multi-arch to this package in commit bc27f9b2 which is included starting in version 1.13.7-1, way before the version you have reported this against. I also just tested this with current unstable (version 1.14.4-1), and co-installation between i386 and amd64 works as expected. According to git the only difference in packaging between that version and the one I tested is the changelog. Can you post an error message or something else that could be used to understand what is happening? -- Arto Jantunen _______________________________________________ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers
