dselect makes the dependency chains a bit more visible.
It doesn't show any broken packages, only some unsatisfiable dependencies.
Some of the are real package bugs (sshfs/fuse) others are incorrectly handled
cross-architecture dependencies or versioning problems (libgtk2.0-0:i386
2.8.0 vs. 2.24.6-0ubuntu6)

ia32-libs depends on ia32-libs-multiarch
ia32-libs-multiarch does not appear to be available
sshfs depends on fuse (>= 2.7)
fuse does not appear to be available
nspluginwrapper depends on nspluginviewer (= 1.4.4-0ubuntu3)
nspluginviewer does not appear to be available

Does the updated source package p11-kit 0.7-2 (libp11-kit0, libp11-kit0:i386) solve your dependency issue?

Actually it causes the next problem....

I had to link
neuffer@kyle:/etc/pkcs11/modules$ ls -la /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkcs11
total 32
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Oct 20 07:48 .
drwxr-xr-x 31 root root 24576 Oct 20 07:47 ..
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Oct 20 07:48 gnome-keyring-pkcs11.so ->
/usr/lib/pkcs11/gnome-keyring-pkcs11.so

In order to be able to keep on working due to this new version.

Cheers

I can't edit messages here, so I'll write new one...
You can resolve this by installing "ia32-libs-multiarch".

sudo apt-get install ia32-libs-multiarch
