I think this is a bug in the multiarch implementation in precise's dpkg.
The first version of this code that landed in Debian is certainly
different and very likely has this bug fixed (though somebody should
check that), but that was too late for precise.

I think this duplicates a couple of other bugs already in the system.
Either way I have added myself as someone affected by it.

Confirmed:
Unpacking libsensors4:i386 (from .../libsensors4_1%3a3.3.1-2ubuntu1_i386.deb)
...
dpkg: error processing
/var/cache/apt/archives/libsensors4_1%3a3.3.1-2ubuntu1_i386.deb (--unpack):
conffile './etc/sensors.d/.placeholder' is not in sync with other instances of
the same package
Unless you really need the i386 version of the package as well I would
recommend that you uninstall it for the time being.
Thanks for reporting this bug in Ubuntu.
