Public bug reported:
According to "Multiarch/Implementation" on Debian Wiki
http://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/Implementation
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS should use the command
sudo dpkg --add-architecture
to add foreign architectures .. if some user wants..
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
returns
dpkg: error: unknown option --add-architecture
Type dpkg --help for help about installing and deinstalling packages [*];
Use `dselect' or `aptitude' for user-friendly package management;
Type dpkg -Dhelp for a list of dpkg debug flag values;
Type dpkg --force-help for a list of forcing options;
Type dpkg-deb --help for help about manipulating *.deb files;
Options marked [*] produce a lot of output - pipe it through `less' or
`more' !
So why this command not exist in dpkg in Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS ?
I know that I can add a foreign architecture via /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/multiarch
but just asking about the command..
Same question exist in Launcphad Answers Tracker :
