Bug description:
== SRU Impact ==
overlay-scrollbar-gtk2:i386 is uninstallable on amd64, which blocks the installation of some packages.
== Test Case ==
On amd64:
dpkg --add-architecture i386
apt update
apt install overlay-scrollbar-gtk2:i386
Either this succeeds, or fails (this bug)
== Regression potential ==
Nil (or close enough)
== Original Bug ==
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."
