I'm trying to launch some Steam applications with optirun. But all
Steam games aren't compatible with 64bits arch.<br>

Steam for Linux (and most games downloaded from Steam) are 32-bit."<br>

I noticed that bbsitch-dkms:i386 package require dkms (all arch) in
control file but during aptitude process he want specific dkms:i386.
I don't know why.<br>
You are right, this wouldn't be a good idea to force installation
like this.<br>
<br>
Sorry I was thinking on an error in dependencies definition. This
bug report is incorrect.<br>
