[Bug 852101] Re: 32-bit applications do not start on 64

[Adam Conrad]

Due to an unfortunate bug in dpkg (debian bug 588077), this is proving
slightly more difficult to fix than we'd first assumed.   We could,
perhaps, work around the i386-specific case (which seems to be the one
people trip over the most) with postrm hacks to manipulate/recreate /lib
/ld-linux.so.2 based on the existence of the two known i386 PIs?
