Title:
should be "Multi-Arch: foreign" to satisfy deps when installing a
foreign architecture pkg
Status in “aspell-en” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I wanted to install coq:armel on Ubuntu 12.04 armhf system
(https://answers.launchpad.net/ac100/+question/218291 ), it depended
transitively on libenchant1c2a:armel, but aspell-en was an obstacle
(although I have it installed in my armhf system):
# apt-get install libenchant1c2a:armel
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done

The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libenchant1c2a:armel : Depends: aspell-en:armel but it is not installable or
myspell-dictionary:armel but it is not installable or
aspell-dictionary:armel but it is not installable or
ispell-dictionary:armel or
hunspell-dictionary:armel but it is not installable

Can't the aspell-en package be labelled "Multi-Arch: foreign" to
satisfy deps when installing a foreign architecture pkg?
(A workaround could be editing /var/lib/dpkg/{status,available} and
/var/lib/apt/Packages*, like described in
http://unix.stackexchange.com/a/60287/4319 for emacsen-common.)
