Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: synaptic
I'm running amd64 Ubuntu. I have an i386 deb package "linuxqq"
downloaded from the vendor. Since "Gdebi" does not accept packages of
the wrong architecture, I used the command line "dpkg -i --force-
architecture [package].deb" to install it. The problem is that it does
not show up in Synaptic as "local or obsolete packages". Its presence in
the system can only be shown by the "dpkg -l" command.
** Affects: synaptic (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
