* What led up to the situation?
Dear Sirs,
I run a 64-bit (multiarch) system and have to install a VMWare's proprietary View client, which is 32-bit. Zenity is one of the dependencies.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I ran: apt-get install zenity:i386
* What was the outcome of this action?
