Bug#733252: gcr: libgcr-3-1:i386 is not installable

[Dr. Lars Hanke]

Package: gcr
Version: 3.4.1-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

on an amd64 system installing gcr:i386 - apparently used by acroread - fails. The reason is that libgcr-3-1:i386 requires libgcr-3-common:i386, which is not available:

$ apt-cache policy libgcr-3-common:i386
libgcr-3-common:i386:
  Installiert:           (keine)
  Installationskandidat: (keine)
  Versionstabelle:

Which of course is nonsense, since the package is architechture independent and in fact installed already.

I'm not too familiar with the multi-arch stuff, so I do not know whether this is an issue of the apt system or the gcr control files.
