The main problem with that is that it might conflict with distros that
already have some or all of the 32-bit stuff (e.g. Intrepid). If we
depend on lib32nss2, to get /usr/lib32/libnss3.so, but the distro
supplies that in ia32-libs (as it normally would), then our dependency
will conflict with ia32-libs and chromium-browser won't install.
