Hi mvo, thanks for the reply.

re: "both "i386" the and "amd64" lists will include the package." grief, sorry about my grammar there.

That meant to say "both the 'i386' and 'amd64' lists will include the package". These lists are the lists of available apps for purchase, returned by the sca API.

It seems we're on the same page here, summing up:
- The package name will only be suffixed with ":i386" on amd64.

- To make the UI more consistent I think I'd prefer if the amd64-multiarch architecture only made the app available on amd64 (with a suffixed package name). The developer would usually also select i386 as an architecture in this case, with the expected results, but the server side wouldn't enforce this.

Please confirm if this sounds ok, or ping me so we can step up the speed on this conversation :)
Thanks!
