When I do an apt-get to install Adobe Acrobat, apt-get insists that I need these other 243 packages as well, all of which seem to be i386. Output below.
Why is that? What does apt-get think it's doing? I thought maybe it was going to apply patches but I did an update/dist-upgrade and rebooted before attempting the install and got the same.
Is there some way to just install acroread? kpdf is nice, but ...
I use Debian Squeeze and for Acroread I use apt source deb-multimedia.org. Here is a 64bit package prepared in order to use the 32bit libraries ready for 64bit system - installed less than 20 additional packages.
