Hi, Daniel! Sorry for late answer, I was not able to reach my workstation to test better new patch. What I did today: I disabled the hack mentioned in bug description, run aptitude and it showed "Suggest 228 removals 27 keeps." That is because after last update I did (don't remember exactly if I used apt-get or aptitude) aptitude was reinstalled from official repo so patched version was replaced. Then I used dpkg -i to install patched version. After installation I've run aptitude again and it suggested only 4 removals and 29 keeps. I decided to let it to proceed with update even being noticed that it wants to remove skype 4.0.0.7. Pressed SHIFT+1 to apply solution and warning disappeared. In general I would say that update looked as "normal" not taking in account skype and ia32-libs which were removed. The main thing I've noticed that it didn't want to remove qt-gui stuff which is necessary to get skype to work. After update went successfully I downloaded new skype package from skype.com i386 version and installed it. Everything went OK!
So here's is *definitely improvement* for me and disabling the option in /etc/apt/apt.conf did the trick for me! Thank you very much for your work! I'm now able to use aptitude again! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/831768 Title: aptitude cannot handle conflicts with multiarch enabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/aptitude/+bug/831768/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
