--- Comment #24 from Scott Ritchie scott@open-vote.org 2010-01-19 17:53:29 --- You're correct Thomas, the bug is at the Ubuntu side, however we can't solve this properly until we have true multiarch support in the package manager. This is a project that has been a long time coming, but now it appears like it won't be integrated into the distribution until Lucid + 1, or October.
In the meantime I'm going to experiment with Erich's patch as a temporary workaround for the next release -- is there anything in it you see that would be bad? Thank you for commenting :)
