Package: ia32-libs
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
I just installed Relase Candidate 1 - wheezy
on an AMD-64 box with windows-Vista
I added installs for RCS and gnuplot OK.
Then I tried BOINC. there was a problem with ia32-libs.
I aborted the boinc install then tried to install ia32-libs bu itself.
Here is the stdout
root@ xxx :/home/jay# aptitude search ia32
p   grub-efi-ia32                                               - GRand

Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?] n
=============================================================================

Then, I tried the virtual package the msg referred to... 
That yielded:
No candidate version found for ia32-libs-i386
No candidate version found for ia32-libs-i386
No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.

Need to get 0 B of archives. After unpacking 0 B will be used.
                                         
I was expecting to get the ia32-libs.

In wheezy, you need to enable multi-arch to be able to install ia32-libs.

This is documented in the release notes and in the package description.


Cheers,
Thijs
