Dear people,
Yesterday I wanted to reinstall my 32-bits applications, skype and acroread.
I understood that 64-bits Oneiric (11.10) does now provide real 32-bits support, so I can install Adobe Acrobat Reader like this:

And had a big panick attack. I had to reinstall gdm, update-manager, etc. on accidently typing yes to the following question:Code:sudo apt-get install libcups2:i386 Reading package lists...

First I thought it was removing redundant 32-bit versions of these packages, but then I realized my icons disappeared... and something else must be happening. Ctrl+C didn't work (known bug). So I killed the apt-get process.Code:sudo apt-get install libavahi-common3:i386 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: telepathy-indicator libswt-cairo-gtk-3-jni libtextcat-data python-prctl libtextcat0 libmythes-1.2-0 Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.

I reinstalled most of the things and have the feeling that this error which remains should be easy to solve. First, however, I would like to know if people were able to install "acroread" on 64-bit system and how.
Thanks in advance!
PS: I did of course already:
Code:sudo dpkg --configure -a sudo apt-get -f install sudo apt-get update echo foreign-architecture i386 | sudo tee /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/multiarch
