This occurs because Synaptic is looking for the <packagename>.list file
in /var/lib/dpkg/info, but for packages that are multi-arch capable, the
filename in /var/lib/dpkg/info contains a ":amd64", even if that is the
native architecture of the machine.  Proposed patch attached which makes
an additional attempt to open a file with the architecture name
embedded.

** Patch added: "fix_780469.patch"
