Well, well, well: look what I've been missing:
The following extra packages will be installed:
libatk1.0-0:i386 libcairo2:i386 libdatrie1:i386 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0:i386
libgraphite2-3:i386 libharfbuzz0b:i386 libpango-1.0-0:i386
libpangocairo-1.0-0:i386 libpangoft2-1.0-0:i386 libpixman-1-0:i386
libthai0:i386 libxcb-render0:i386 libxcb-shm0:i386
That did the 'trick'.
Thank you very much indeed.
Richmond.
