After removing some (I thought) un-needed libraries this morning, I

When ever I now try to do anything with aptitude, I get
this result:
The following partially installed packages will be configured:

No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0 B of archives. After unpacking 0 B will be used.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
google-chrome-stable : Depends: lib32gcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1) which is a
virtual package.
Depends: lib32stdc++6 (>= 4.6) which is a
virtual package.
Depends: libc6-i386 (>= 2.11) which is a
virtual package.
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:
Remove the following packages:
1) google-chrome-stable
How can I fix this ? I wasn't aware I had removed anything essential
but I guess I inadvertently did.
What architecture are you using? If it's amd64, then it looks to me
like:
dpkg --add-architecture i386
apt-get update
might help you, but I could be wrong. If you are running on amd64, and
you know you've already done this, then just disregard my advice.
