I also posted this question here https://stackoverflow.com/q/77693879/7926069 but was told this site may be a better fit so I crossposted. Hope that's okay!

I have been going in circles trying to install this package as it is a dependency I need for something else (libboost-all-dev:armhf).

I have added armhf architecture and installed python3:armhf just fine. However, whenever I try to install python3-dev:armhf, it says it needs python3-distutils:armhf. When I try to install python3-distutils:armhf, it says

Note, selecting 'python3-distutils' instead of 'python3-distutils:armhf'

This uninstalls python3:armhf and installs python3:amd64 and its dependencies instead, and this obviously conflicts with python3:armhf. How can I resolve this?

I have found these two somewhat related questions, but the answers don't seem to actually resolve the issue:

  • It's not super okay. Questions can be migrated between the key sites, and they should not be cross posted. If you don't want to deal with the migration, you can delete the question there yourself and leave this one up here. Commented Dec 20, 2023 at 20:02
  • @music2myear oh okay. Do you agree that the question fits better in this forum? If so I will delete the other one
