[Bug 1862378] Re: libsystemd-shared broken in Multi-Arch

Yes, it still exists as of systemd 248.3-1ubuntu1:

Running kernel seems to be up-to-date.

Failed to check for processor microcode upgrades.

Restarting services...
 systemctl restart systemd-timesyncd.service
Job for systemd-timesyncd.service failed because a fatal signal was delivered to the control process.
See "systemctl status systemd-timesyncd.service" and "journalctl -xeu systemd-timesyncd.service" for details.
Service restarts being deferred:
 systemctl restart systemd-logind.service

No containers need to be restarted.

Title:
  libsystemd-shared broken in Multi-Arch

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I noticed that systemd-machined was failing to start on an arm64 box.
  This box had armhf enabled, and turns out systemd had been cross-
  graded over to systemd:armhf[*]. It still had systemd-container:arm64
  installed, so now I had an arm64 /lib/systemd/systemd-machine, but an
  armhf /lib/systemd/libsystemd-shared-244.so.

  libsystemd-shared-244.so is from the systemd package. Since systemd is
  marked Multi-Arch: foreign, systemd:armhf was able to incorrectly
  satisfy systemd-container:arm64's dependency on systemd.

  [*] kudos to Multi-Arch that I simply hadn't noticed
