Hi there,

Please find attached a patch to xapian-core to transition it to use of
the multiarch library paths as described at
<http://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/Implementation>.

Both aptitude and zeitgeist-core depend on libxapian22, and
zeitgeist-core as a dependency of gnome so this means that gnome and
aptitude need to be the same architecture.

So this change makes it so that aptitude and gnome can have different
architectures (eg: i386 & amd64).

I've done very minimal testing: I installed libxapian22 and checked
that aptitude started without error.
