    Dear Maintainer,

    *** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

    * What led up to the situation?

    Either upgrading to version 1.2.2-6 or downgrading from it.

    dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of inkscape:
    inkscape depends on lib2geom1.2.0t64 (>= 1.2.2); however:
    Package lib2geom1.2.0t64:i386 is not installed.

    dpkg: error processing package inkscape (--configure):
    dependency problems - leaving unconfigured

    The problem persists with lib2geom1.4.0.
