I believe this bug is affecting me, and it prevents me from compiling for 32bit+64bit on Precise Pangolin. My issue is the "libxt-dev" and the "libxt-dev:i386" packages are incompatible, so I cannot install both at the same time. The same happens with "libxp-dev" and "libxp-dev:i386".
This incompatibility didn't happen in the past. I was able to install support for compiling for 32bit and 64bit on Maverick Meerkat, with no problems, and it worked fine. I need to compile for 32bit and 64bit... is there some workaround available? Can I force install these incompatible packages, or is there some risk of breaking anything? What would you recommend me to do? Is it my best bet downgrading to Maverick?

The following packages do not support multi-arch installation: libice-dev libsm-dev libxext-dev libxmu-dev libxrandr-dev libxrender- dev libxt-dev However, a quick check after installing the i386 versions in a virtual machine and doing a diff against the host files showed that the only differences between the files in the i386 and amd64 versions are in html files, so presumably it is safe to allow a multi-arch install for them. I hope those were the only ones I am missing!
