Public bug reported:

I need to build software for both AMD and ARM on one system (build-server)
Therefore i want to install the libext2fs-dev:amd64 and libext2fs-dev:arm64 in 
parallel.
Via apt install this doesn't work  - it always wants to uninstall the other 
package

    sudo apt install libext2fs-dev:arm64
    ...
    The following packages will be REMOVED:
      libext2fs-dev

I also cannot use e.g. libarchive-dev:arm64, because it depends on
libext2fs-dev

Diff of the data in the two packages (libext2fs-
dev_1.47.0-2.4~exp1ubuntu4.1_amd64.deb vs libext2fs-
dev_1.47.0-2.4~exp1ubuntu4.1_arm64.deb) shows no reason for this:
(headers are the same, binaries are in architecture-specific folders)
