I seem to be completely blocked from being able to view a PDF until this
is solved.  Acrobat appears to do this thing where it's the only reader
that can read certain PDFs ( It prints a nice message telling me so when
I try to load it in Google or Evince )

But I can't open a file from acroreader until it gets its scrollbar.
Further, there is no option to use Acrobat Reader from 'open with' when
browsing the filesystem.

In desperation, I tried to follow this:

http://askubuntu.com/questions/392097/how-do-i-install-32-bit-libraries-
when-they-keep-having-uninstallable-
dependenci?newreg=f8daa9b771684ce989a504fb4216b21f

.. Even though it seemed like a "bad idea".

Screwed up my packaging system temporarily.  My fault, entirely, of
course.

Please fix this, or provide a work-around that preferably doesn't
involve hand-altering system configuration files.

Thanks!

Title:
  incorrect multi-arch related meta information.

Status in “overlay-scrollbar” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I'm on a 64-bit system trying to install "overlay-scrollbar-gtk2:i386"
  which depends on the "overlay-scrollbar:i386" package. "overlay-
  scrollbar:i386" doesn't have an install candidate because it's a
  "multi-arch" package. This should (or so I've been told) be reflected
  in the meta information of the "overlay-scrollbar" package but isn't,
  which is why the former package fails to install.

  As a more competent person than I put it:

  "The overlay-scrollbar package does not come in i386 or amd64 flavors;
  it comes as an "all" flavor, which installs on all archs.

  It appears to be missing the Multi-Arch: allowed header so it won't
  satisfy an i386 package depending on it. You should file a bug report
  asking that the missing header be added."
