Title:
  s-c shows duplicate packages (i386 multiarch on amd64 install)

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Since multiarch has been enabled on amd64 installs , the apt cache now
  shows nearly twice as many packages. This causes apt-xapian-index to
  index nearly twice as many packages (ie the 100% processor usage takes
  significantly longer than normal). As a consequence s-c shows a
  duplicate i386 version of the vast majority of packages. I'm unsure
  how deep down the stack we should fix this.
