Version: 0.8.11.3

Feel free to downgrade the bug severity if you think that's appropriate; but
this is definitely a bug that needs to be fixed before we can roll out
multiarch. :-)

Removing libselinux1 ...
dpkg: libselinux1: dependency problems, but removing anyway as you requested:

 util-linux depends on libselinux1 (>= 1.32).
 sysvinit-utils depends on libselinux1 (>= 1.32).
 dpkg depends on libselinux1 (>= 1.32).

 sysvinit depends on libselinux1 (>= 1.32).

Removing libselinux1 ...
dpkg: error while loading shared libraries: libselinux.so.1: cannot open shared 
object file: No such file or directory
Processing triggers for libc-bin ...
ldconfig deferred processing now taking place
/usr/bin/dpkg: error while loading shared libraries: libselinux.so.1: cannot 
open shared object file: No such file or directory
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (127)
#

So, apt told dpkg to remove the wrong package.  The commandline passed is:

/usr/bin/dpkg --status-fd 15 --force-depends --force-remove-essential --remove 
libselinux1

It should be asking for the removal of libselinux1:i386 instead.
