As the error states, dpkg is not recognizing the :i386 token. This token is from dpkg multilib implementation (http://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/Implementation). Multilib as been implemented in dpkg 1.16.2. Debian stable is currently using dpkg 1.15.8 (http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/dpkg). Looking at the package description, it has clearly been made for Debian Testing, and you're using an old (or stable) version of dpkg, which is not compatible.
