That seemed to work...
orca:/tmp# dpkg -i --force-architecture libmysqlclient-dev_5.1.45-1_i386.deb

dpkg: warning: overriding problem because --force enabled:
 package architecture (i386) does not match system (amd64)
Selecting previously deselected package libmysqlclient-dev.
(Reading database ... 190687 files and directories currently installed.)

orca:/tmp#

But my build still fails. Will have to dive deeper into it.

Thanks!
