Bug Description

When plugging an MP3 player into a newly installed Ubuntu 12.04 LTS install, rythmbox is started and warns that you need additional codecs. It then pops up a dialog asking to install them and includes combinations of amd64 and i386 libraries, any attempt to install them leads to a huge error dialog.

We likely should only show the current architecture versions.
