Running the dpkg invocation manually indeed fails:

thanks Sebastian for the report.

that'd be because your have installed all of:
libavcodec61, libavcodec61:i386, libavcodec61:amd64

it sounds like adequate should drop foo in the presence of any foo:arch

Hi

thanks Sebastian for the report.
libavcodec61, libavcodec61:i386, libavcodec61:amd64

No, I don't. I have libavcodec61:amd64 (native arch) and
libavcoded61:i386 installed.

Cheers

No, I don't. I have libavcodec61:amd64 (native arch) and
libavcoded61:i386 installed.

right, that's fine. the problem is that, given any libavcoded61:arch installed
package, dpkg -L additionally reports libavcodec61, and that latter one is
ambiguous in the face of two different arch ones

this change was implemented in 0.16.6. marking as fixed, but please do reopen if
the issue persists for you

okay, this is starting to get embarassing. I'm confident that 0.16.17 fixes it,
but so was with earlier attempts. if that fails again, I'll setup a multi-arch
system to actually reproduce the issue (I can't on my mix of stable/testing, at
least not with the foreign arch I've tried).

thanks again,

The last upgrade with MA: same libraries running adequate 0.16.17 didn't
produce a dpkg error. So it looks fixed to me.
