Bug description:
  Installing libkmod2-dev:i386 fails when the 64-bit version is also
  installed. See below. The 'partially installed' package is because of
  a previous aptitude install command which included many other packages
  which first showed the error.

  
  $ sudo aptitude install libudev-dev:i386
  The following NEW packages will be installed:
    libkmod2:i386{a}
