Many thanks. This seems to be a bug in the multiarch documentation instead. 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 About wine... I have wine:i386 corerctly installed, but it does not run the games properly without libgl1-nvidia-glx:i386 whose dependencies chain to this Thanks ------------------------- A: Because it breaks the logical flow of discussion.
