I am no expert, but I have a suspicion: I used 'my old' upgrade procedure; i.e. - fresh install - used the equavilent of: cat package_list | dpkg --set-selections dselect install ...where the package_list file is a file with some carefully selected packages (*not* the whole 'dpkg --get-selections' mind you). That seems to have royally screwed up the system as I was swamped with i386 packages. As I tried to clear up this mess, I noticed that 'apt-get install' seemed to do better; it replaced i386 packages with amd64 ones. Anyway; it ended up with me not even being able to log in to the system :) (so much for my hacker skillz) I have currently re-installed a fresh 12.04 again and with some bash sed magic converted the package_list and done a loop doing multiple apt-get install instead. Seems to be working fine so far... If things go south I'll be sure to update within a day or two.
