Thank you for your time. I disagree though. I think apt is making bad decisions here, and having to pass python3:amd64 to force the right one to be installed is a workaround for a bug in my book. Maybe it isn't a python issue, but a bug nevertheless and apt's error message is terrible.
You can certainly expect many other users to hit this problem and loose time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to python3-defaults in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2100775 Title: python3-minimal wants to install twice when installing amd64 and arm64 packages Status in python3-defaults package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: When adding the ports repository to cross compile from amd64 to arm64, some arm64 dependencies tries to install python3-minimal:arm64 which conflicts with the already installed python3-minimal:amd64. 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?
