Package: libxml2-dev
Version: 2.6.16-7

I've been trying to install libxml2-dev on sarge using apt-get as follows

sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev

I get the following as output

   Reading Package Lists...
   Building Dependency Tree...
   Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
   requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
   distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
   or been moved out of Incoming.

   Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
   the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
   that package should be filed.
   The following information may help to resolve the situation:

   The following packages have unmet dependencies:
     libxml2-dev: Depends: libxml2 (= 2.6.16-7) but 2.6.20-1 is to be
   installed

My sources.list looks like this

   deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org sarge main
   deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian sarge main contrib non-free

Before trying the apt-get command above I did an apt-get update, apt-get upgrade

apt-config dump gives

   APT::Architecture "i386";
