[Bug 1069083] [NEW] package libaio-dev 0.3.109-2ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/include/libaio.h', which is also in package libaio:i386 0.3.104-1

Public bug reported:

it looks like it is not possible to install both libaio and libaio-i386.
One is trying to remove the header file installed by other and this step
fails. I guess the header file should be the same i.e. supporting both
32 and 64 bit architecture (it may be so but it looks like the packages
are not aware of it)
