purging packages from 32 bit chroot

[Seb <spluque@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I noticed that chroot inside my AMD64 system, and I see that some packages
have residual configuration files (according to synaptic).  But if I do
'apt-get remove --purge package', apt tells me that the package is not
installed and nothing is done.  This does work in my main AMD64 system
for purging packages.  Any ideas?  Thanks.
