Version: 1.111

On 21 Nov 2012 you reported the following:

> How can I (or where can I read how to) mark as foreign as you suggest?
>
> Please note that I need the :all package to fulfill dependencias both for 
> xserver-xorg-core:i386 and for xserver-xorg-core:amd64

One of the causes for this bug was that at the time the package 
keyboard-configuration was not declared as 'Multi-Arch: foreign'.  This was 
corrected in version 1.111 of console-setup (8 Aug 2014).  Unfortunately, due to 
a mistake the bug was not closed at the time.  I am closing it now.
