I ran into this as well. What I did was pretty simple: 1. install precise on an amd64 server, install a bunch of stuff 2. run dpkg --get-selections there 3. install a second amd64 server with precise 4 run apt-get update on the second server 5. run dpkg --set-selections with the list from the first server on the second server 6. run apt-get dselect-upgrade on the second server
