Public bug reported:

Hi,

I ran in a problem with your final version of Xubuntu Saucy Salamander
(the flavour is not decisive in this case ... just for clarification).

What I did:
Fresh installation with USB-stick of release version (final).
Installed additional packages via synaptic - including:
   googleearth-package
Built .deb as user in usual way:
   make-googleearth-package 
Installed created package (now in new version compared to 13.04):
   sudo dpkg -i googleearth_6.0.3.2197+1.0-1_amd64.deb
Resulting in the error:
   dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of googleearth:
   googleearth depends on ia32-libs-multiarch; however:
   Package ia32-libs-multiarch is not installed.

Anoying is, that google-earth seems to run flawlessly - but can not
configure due to the missing ia32-libs-multiarch which is no longer
part of repos since this latest 13.10 release - which is not saucy ... ;-)

So the program works (better than under 13.04!)
but has to be removed via:
   sudo apt-get install -f
to regain an updatable system.

So there are some questions comming to my mind:
1) Why is ia32-libs-multiarch not installable with 13.10 ???
2) Why is the googleearth-package not adapted
     if package is not needed anyway?
3) What's the workaround to get wrong broken bit away to have an
     updatable system and having the usable google-earth program ???

>From my perspective Google-Earth should work flawlessly under
the future 14.04 LTS ... if its name `Trusty' should really mean anything ...
so this bug should be fixed in time.

Many thanks for your help - a workaround for 13.10 would be
much appreciated.

Regards,
JMB
