Package: coreutils
Version: 7.3-1



The coreutils package on my sid chroot system fails to install with a claim of missing amd64-libacl1. The machine has an amd64 cpu, but is running an i686 kernel: The host uname output is:

Linux debian.home.network 2.6.22-3-686-bigmem #1 SMP Sun Feb 10 21:47:55 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux

The error from apt-get running in the sid chroot is:

======================
Preconfiguring packages ... dpkg-deb: --control /var/cache/apt/archives/coreutils_7.3-1_i386.deb /var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci dpkg: regarding .../coreutils_7.3-1_i386.deb containing coreutils, pre-dependency problem: coreutils pre-depends on amd64-libacl1 (>= 2.2.11-1~13) dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/coreutils_7.3-1_i386.deb (--unpack): pre-dependency problem - not installing coreutils Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/coreutils_7.3-1_i386.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
=========================

There does not seem to be a way to install the amd64 libacl1 package: the paths in the amd64 package collide with the i386 setup that is already installed when I download it by hand from the amd64 depository.

This was apparantly caused by ia32-apt-get, not a coreutils dependency.
