Bug Description

ubuntu 14.04 64bit, all updates. If I install libportmidi0:i386, 64bit libportmidi0 gets removed.

If this is not an intended behavior, I would like to report this as bug, as I wanted to install an application dependent on 32bit libportmidi, as there is no 64bit version of this application and it also cannot be compiled to 64bit.

libportmidi version 1:200-0ubuntu3

What you expected to happen: libs install side by side gracefully
What happened instead: 64bit lib gets uninstalled when installing 32bit
