I've seen something similar. In which installing a dssi-vst or a
package needed, resulted in removing jamin. A colleague fixed that one
and submitted a patch upstream. The problem was that a package was not
built with the multiarch approach.

Found the LAU post in which I reported that:

  "Update. The liblo7 package was not built for multi-arch and that

  when installing dssi-vst:386. A colleague fixed it and submitted a

I guess upstream Debian never took the patch. Rebuilding the package
with multiarch certainly solved gracefully the problem.
