Bug Description

ia32-libs package found in Oneiric and earlier Ubuntu versions contains libxtst6. In Precise, ia32-libs depends on multi-arch versions of libraries, but libxtst6 is not among them. As far as I undestand, ia32-libs in Precise is supposed to be a backward compatible transitional package, so it should depend on the same set of libraries as earlier ia32-libs versions.

I stumbled upon this issue when trying to build updated Java packages (https://github.com/rraptorr/sun-java6) on Precise. The package build-depends on ia32-libs and builds fine on older Ubuntu releases, but fails on Precise, due to lack of libxtst6.
