Thenx Thijs for quick response,

I've looked up the debian-7 release notes, and its section on multiarchitecture - regretibly it doesn't explain much (like: how to have fine-controll over it), just confirms what you say.

Anyway. I did:
# dpkg --add-architecture i386
# apt-get update

but after that, my:
# apt-get install ia32-libs
... offers me to install tons of 32-bit software&libraries; quite like it was now necessary to double my system for 32-bit architecture. I'm quite reluctant to let it go.

isn't there a way (any way) to install just the required packages (required, by the offending thrd party software) ?
