This is two bugs. One is apt bug #850264, which we know we need to fix
via SRU to oneiric. apt should always prefer gconf-service:amd64 here,
and it's installing gconf-service:i386 instead.
The other is a bug in the gconf dependencies. gconf2 declares that it
depends on the exact version of gconf-service, *but* gconf-service is
marked Multi-Arch: foreign, allowing the dependency to be satisfied by a
foreign version of the package when part of the package (the plugin)
definitely has to be of the same arch as the rev-dep.
We could make gconf-service Multi-Arch: allowed and have gconf2 depend
on gconf-service:any, except that doesn't work with the lucid apt.
** Changed in: gconf (Ubuntu Precise)
