Bug Description
I'm on
alex@leon:~$ uname -a
Linux leon 3.2.0-24-generic #37-Ubuntu SMP Wed Apr 25 08:43:22 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
It's a fresh 12.04 install from a mini 30MB iso dd'ed to a USB flash drive.
So it's clean and up-to-date.
I have libfreetype6 and libfreetype6-dev installed.
To compile wine from source (32 and 64 bit version), I need both 32 and 64 bit development packages of several libraries.
For gcc, I had to install gcc-multilib instead of gcc:i386 (gcc and gcc:i386 seem to be incompatible).
But there is no freetype6-multilib package hence my bug report.
I think the following console output will tell you more things than long sentences :
alex@leon:~$ sudo apt-get install libfreetype6-

Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.

Do you want to continue [Y/n]? ^C
I'm sure you understand removing build-essential and gcc is not really something I want to do.
Hopefully, wine provides a configure switch (--without-

There appear to be two separate issues here. One is that libc6-dev Recommends: gcc, which apparently for you is confusing apt into removing build-essential even though it is NOT going to install gcc:i386. The other is that libfreetype6-dev is not a Multi-Arch: same package yet.
You should be able to work around the first issue by manually running 'sudo apt-get install libc6-dev libc6-dev:i386'.
The second issue will have to wait a bit for a solution to /usr/bin/ freetype- config containing architecture- dependent strings.
