[Bug 499477] Re: package ia32-libs (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: unable to create `/usr/lib32/nvidia/libGL.so.1.2.xlibmesa.dpkg-new' (while processing `./usr/lib32/libGL.so.1.2'): No such file or directory

I found this problem trying to isntall the skype package (from skype
website) and the flashplugin-installer package from the Ubuntu
repository.  I am using Ubuntu Karmic on a dual Xeon workstation, Dell
box with nVIDIA graphics card.

I removed all the nvidia packages, and then the skype and flashplugin-
installer packages loaded, then I reloaded the nvidia packages -- I am
using the 185 series.  It all now seems to work.

The upshot is that there seems to be a conflict between the ia32-libs
package and the nvidia packages.

Thanks for posting the bug report, it helped me a lot :-)  though I wish
there wasn't the problem in the first place!
