Dear Maintainer,

I have a 64bit system, but have added the i386 architecture. However,
if I try to install an i386 package, which requires libc6:i386 for
example, the dependencies can not be installed, since they would break
libc6. This makes multi-arch useless.

Your version of libc6 is "2.17-97" which is the version from testing,
not from stable (wheezy). You only have wheezy sources enabled at the
moment, so apt can't find the same version for libc6:i386.

Multi-Arch isn't useless, you are just requesting the impossible.
Nothing can be done about that from our side.
Therefore closing as not a bug.

For your next bugreport it would be nice if you could include an exact
description of your problem alongside the exact command and its output.
Mentioning that you have a mixed system instead of following one release
would not have hurt either. Thanks nonetheless for the report and sorry
that I have to close it as user error.


Best regards
