Public bug reported:
I ran into this bug when trying to install 32-bit directfb using
multiarch on amd64. The install fails to find a candidate because tsconf
is arch:all, not arch:i386.
For some reason libts-0.0-0:i386 seems to depend on tsconf:i386 which
makes nore sense. This package consists of one configuration file which
has jitter in touchscreens. It is classified as "arch:all" because there
is nothing here that depends on a particular architecture.
This makes libts uninstallable using multiarch, and by dependency, makes
libdirectfb (which is used by some video players and game engines)
uninstallable using multiarch.
$ sudo apt-get install libdirectfb-1.2-9:i386

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libdirectfb-1.2-9:i386 : Depends: libts-0.0-0:i386 (>= 1.0) but it is not
