[Bug 892855] Re: better multiarch support for google-talkplugin:i386

[Steve Langasek]

This is not a bug.  When you use dpkg to install a package, it does not
pull in the package dependencies; you need to manually install them, or
run 'apt-get -f install' after calling dpkg, or use a higher-level tool
(such as Software Center) for installing the package.

Furthermore, the 32-bit gtalk plugin package will not integrate with a
64-bit desktop anyway because it provides a 32-bit plugin and a 64-bit
plugin (or integration with nspluginwrapper) is needed to make the
package usable with a 64-bit browser.  That's not a bug in Ubuntu, it's
a limitation of the package in question.  You need to install the amd64
gtalk plugin package instead.
