[Bug 963151] [NEW] apt-get / update-manager multi-arch broke on libfreetype6 in Oneric today

[Darxus]

Public bug reported:

I just allowed update-manager to do an automatic upgrade.  It failed.
Now apt-get can't figure out what to do with it so my package management
is all broken:

apt-get -f install
