Title: libsdl1.2-dev:i386 cannot be installed on 64-bit systems Status in apt package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Platform: Ubuntu Precise 12.04.2 LTS 3.2.0-39-generic #62-Ubuntu SMP Thu Feb 28 00:28:53 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Reference: I also refer you to bug #1068374 which is very similar in behaviour. Behaviour: When I try to bring in libsdl1.2-dev:i386, apt wants to uninstall half my system! Expectation: I would expect the library to be installed seamlessly along with the other i386 libraries I had already obtained. Detail: I was in the throes of installing Neverwinter Nights game natively under linux using instructions found on "http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=113259" and on "http://social.bioware.com/forum/Neverwinter-Nights-1/NwN-1-Technical-Support-Self-help-for-all-versions-and-expansions/nwmouse-and-friends-64bit-linux-5212955-1.html". I wanted this package to cross-compile the nwmouse.so component to assist with the installation of a hardware mouse within the game. Additional: Using the instructions for further information requested in bug #1068374 I've already attached the output for further analysis.
