Package: libgstreamer1.0-0
Version: 1.5.1-2
Severity: important

Hi,

When libgstreamer1.0-0 is installed onto a system with the package
installed on another architecture already, I get this error:

# dpkg -i libgstreamer1.0-0_1.5.1-2_i386.deb 
Selecting previously unselected package libgstreamer1.0-0:i386.
(Reading database ... 290779 files and directories currently installed.)

 Note <filename> must be a regular (non-symlink) file.

Thanks,
James
