This is precisely my point, for some reason dpkg-architecture is not installed by default, while dpkg is of course installed by default. So prereq should check that it is. AFAIR Python will silently compile to a very reduced featurese because it can't find multiarch libraries, which is why this is particularly tricky to debug.
