I've never used Software Center before (to be sincere, dunno what is 
that :-P) but maybe the problem is only reproducible from there. Have you 
tried using Synaptic or apt/aptitude to get the package? Just to see if

That should not happen. I'm afraid it can be an error somewhere but for 
sure having to use a DVD/CD as a media source it should not be required 
at all, even less requesting for a different architecture.
