** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  
  Despite libraspberrypi0 being declared Multi-Arch: same, users cannot
  install libraspberrypi0:armhf on arm64 systems. This affects the ability
  to (attempt to) use libwidevine (the library required to play certain
  proprietary streaming services, e.g. Netflix, which is currently only
  available as an armhf binary).
  
  Note: For the sake of clarity, while this fix enables
  libraspberrypi0:armhf to be co-installed with the arm64 variant, I have
  *not* tested installation / usage of widevine itself as that's beyond
  the scope of this bug.
  
  It also affects users of the (still very popular) legacy camera stack,
  which is only supported on the armhf architecture as of jammy (all the
  mmal utilities and libraries were removed from arm64 upstream, and this
  change was incorporated in raspberrypi-userland in jammy).
  
  [Test Plan]
  
  * Flash the Ubuntu Desktop 22.04 for Raspberry Pi to an SD card
  
(http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases/jammy/release/ubuntu-22.04-preinstalled-
  desktop-arm64+raspi.img.xz is the relevant image, but this is probably
  easier to accomplish via the rpi-imager tool)
  
  * Boot the SD card on a supported Pi (4, 400, CM4) and run through
  first-time setup
  
  * Open a terminal
  
  * sudo dpkg --add-architecture armhf
  
  * sudo apt update
  
  * sudo apt install libraspberrypi0:armhf
  
  * Observe failure due to conflict in lintian-overrides
  
  * Enable proposed updates
  (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed)
  
  * sudo apt update
  
- * sudo apt install libraspberrypi0:armhf
+ * sudo apt install -t jammy-proposed libraspberrypi0:armhf
  
  * Package installs successfully
  
  * The fixed version also sets Multi-Arch: same on libraspberrypi-dev, so
  it would also be useful to test the following: sudo apt install
  libraspberrypi-dev:{armhf,arm64}
  
  [Regression Potential]
  
  We could backport just the Multi-Arch fixes to the lintian-overrides,
  but the diff between the version currently shipped in jammy, and the
  fixed version in kinetic is small consisting of only 6 (mostly trivial)
  commits (no new features are included, just bug fixes). Hence, I've
  decided to just backport the fixed version, unless the SRU team raises
  any objections.
  
  The fixed version has been tested on the jammy desktop and jammy server
  arm64 platforms without issue so far.
  
  [Original Description]
  
  https://github.com/Botspot/pi-apps/pull/1806
  
  Cannot install libraspberrypi0:armhf on 22.04 (Jammy) because of broken 
dependencies.
  Please fix your packages for libraspberrypi0.
