Bug#669377: apt: insists to install i386 packages on upgrade while apparently no need to

Package: apt
Version: 0.9.1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

after upgrade to apt 0.9.1 yesterday apt-get insists to install:

merkaba:~> LANG=C apt-get dist-upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:
gcc-4.7-base:i386 libapt-pkg4.12:i386 libbz2-1.0:i386 libc6:i386 libc6-i686:i386 libgcc1:i386 libstdc++6:i386 zlib1g:i386
0 upgraded, 8 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0 B/6726 kB of archives.
After this operation, 16.0 MB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? ^C


while aptitude does not want to install any package:

merkaba:~#130> LANG=C aptitude upgrade
No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0 B of archives. After unpacking 0 B will be used.


And I have no i386 packages installed at all:

merkaba:~> dpkg -l | grep i386
merkaba:~#1>


So I expect, that apt-get does not install any 32-Bit packages on dist-upgrade.




Detailed information on versions apt-get wants to install:

merkaba:~> LANG=C apt-get -uV dist-upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:
gcc-4.7-base:i386 (4.7.0-3)
libapt-pkg4.12:i386 (0.9.1)
libbz2-1.0:i386 (1.0.6-1)
libc6:i386 (2.13-30)
libc6-i686:i386 (2.13-30)
libgcc1:i386 (4.7.0-3)
libstdc++6:i386 (4.7.0-3)
zlib1g:i386 (1.2.6.dfsg-2)
0 upgraded, 8 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0 B/6726 kB of archives.
After this operation, 16.0 MB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? ^C


Please tell me if you need anything else.


Feel free to close this bug if installing a minimum set of i386 packages
in multiarch configurations is an intended feature.

Thanks,
Martin
