I should in theory be able to install acroread from deb-multimedia as
it is shown in:

I ran this line:
dpkg --add-architecture i386
and checked with
dpkg --print-foreign-architectures
i386
but still get the same error:
No candidate version found for acroread
However if I run
aptitude install acroread:i386
it is now downloading along with a whole slew of i386 libs
but it still won't install

so it looks like I still need to wait for some mis-matches to be sorted
out.
one step forward, one step back seems to be the name of the game at
the moment1
