Public bug reported:

Trying to install wine1.6 leads to a series of dependency errors that
lead back to libvpx1:i386.

Trying to install that package means that libvpx1:amd64 is to be
removed, which then wants to remove a whole bunch of other, important,
packages, like software-center & gnome-control-center.

$ lsb_release -rd
Description:	Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
Release:	14.04

--=====

What I expect to happen: in a multi-arch system, that amd64 and i386
packages happily coexist.

--=====

What happens instead: they break each other.
