Since I happened to have the same problem with another package, wanting a reinstall, and all the methods in the answers either did nothing or first uninstall the whole system before reinstalling, I ended up with a solution.

sudo aptitude reinstall libebml3:i386

Of course, there must be another solution to force a package to reinstall using apt-get instead of aptitude.

sudo apt-get install --reinstall libebml3:i386

  Good, unless you need to reinstall a package that aptitude depends on (like libboost_iostreams).
