Title:
  I cannot install this 32-bit program on my 64-bit computer

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I tried to install a 32-bit-program on my 64-bit computer and i got
  the error-message: "Wrong architecture i386" . I don't know if this is
  a bug or a misfeature, but there should be a 32-bit-mode so when my
  computer encounters a 32-bit-program it should pretend to be a 32-bit
  computer for that program. I believe that Microsoft has something like
  this on their 64-bit operating-systems.
