What's normal. gtk2-engines-xfce doesn't contain Multi-Arch stanza in it's description. Hence - you cannot install more than one architecture of this package at the same time. Please note that I wrote 'libraries from the package', not the package. Quick and dirty way to fix the issue is to download gtk2-engines-xfce, then invoke (as root): dpkg -x gtk2-engines-xfce_3.0.1-2_amd64.deb /usr/local/ mv /usr/local/usr/* /usr/local rm -rf /usr/local/usr This setup WILL break once Jessie's gtk2-engines-xfce package will be updated. Probably (I can not test it right now) more-or-less correct way to fix the issue is to launch acroread with GTK theme that does not require xfce engine (for example): GTK2_RC_FILES=/usr/share/themes/Raleigh/gtk-2.0/gtkrc acroread Reco -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
