    You have a break in your the dependency chain. Why? That's why:

    apt-cache policy libgphoto2-6:i386 libgphoto2-6 gives

    libgphoto2-6:i386:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 2.5.3.1-1ubuntu2
  Version table:
     2.5.3.1-1ubuntu2 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main i386 Packages
libgphoto2-6:
  Installed: 2.5.3.1-1ubuntu2.2
  Candidate: 2.5.3.1-1ubuntu2.2
  Version table:
 *** 2.5.3.1-1ubuntu2.2 0
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     2.5.3.1-1ubuntu2 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages

    As you can see, you have only one installation candidate for libgphoto2-6:i386 with the version 2.5.3.1-1ubuntu2. But the version of libgphoto2-6:i386 have to be exact the same as for libgphoto2-6 and this is 2.5.3.1-1ubuntu2.2 not version 2.5.3.1-1ubuntu2. Correct with

    sudo apt-get install libgphoto2-6=2.5.3.1-1ubuntu2 
sudo apt-get install -f

    Earlier you had enabled trusty-updates, this channel contains the version 2.5.3.1-1ubuntu2.2 for both packages. You could also re-enable trusty-updates.

    Open Software & Updates and the tab Updates and activate trusty-updates as you can see in the screenshot (ok, it's a Wily screenshot and not Trusty).
