Marked as dup of 402833 because the original complaint of this bug
included "debian servers", which is caused by a hard-wired config in a
file owned by ia32-archive.

Yes, this is completely ridiculous. I opened this bug in June, and it's
not even triaged yet. Is this common for the ubuntu project?
I can understand if bugs are backed up, but that no developer has even
looked at it and marked the severity level or hand it off to someone?
This is a show stopper
Fix for me:
a) delete /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00ia32-archive
b) Editing the mangle-line in /usr/bin/apt-get to read (including some more
lines in the file):
# Mangle foreign files
for F in $LISTDIR/foreign/lists/*_*; do
DIR="$(dirname "$F")"
case "$F" in
*_Packages)

Small update: after "apt-get --purge ia32-archive ia32-libs-tools ia32-apt-get"
and
removing any reference to i386 packages in /etc/apt/sources.list I am left with
a usable apt-get but of course no support for installation of 32 bit packages
:-(
