[Bug 1093819] Re: Can't install ia32-libs in chrooted environment

Thu Dec 27 01:08:59 UTC 2012

** Description changed:

+ ia32-libs-multiarch is i386 only.  Systems without i386 configured
+ receive this error trying to install ia32-libs:
+ 
+ > ia32-libs : Depends: ia32-libs-multiarch but it is not installable
+ 
+ Of course, this is entirely a configuration issue: dpkg is not using
+ i386.  In this report the system was installed using debootstrap, in
+ comment #36 of bug 1016294, WUBI.
+ 
+ This is similar to bug 1016294, though many comments on that report
+ indicate there are other dependency issues at play.  Keeping as a
+ separate report.  Probably neither are a bug in ia32-libs per se.  Feel
+ free to close, duplicate, or reassign to the various installers as
+ appropriate.
