Having the same issue.
OS: Ubuntu 12.10 64 Bit
Installed using WUBI installer
On a fresh install, and I mean nothing else installed.
Ran sudo apt-get install ia32-libs and got:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
ia32-libs : Depends: ia32-libs-multiarch but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
However when I came across Doridian's suggestion, it made sense so I
gave it a try and it worked.
I would have to say that Clems suggestion is also 100% correct for the
WUBI installation of Ubuntu as it does not run through the traditional
installer but extracts the tar.xz version which I assume only has 64 bit
enabled and does not enable 32 bit.
Doridians Response:

Clems Response:

So a very BIG thank you to Doridian and Clems Posts for helping me
resolve this issue.
