The issue may be in your apt sources, or in packages you already have installed in that docker base system.

I suspect this is a packaging mistake as 22.04 didn't have this issue and I've noticed this in 24.04. I believe some packages should have a virtual dependency on python3-minimal without specifying which architecture it uses right?
