[Bug 1948346] Re: package libnih1 1.0.3-6ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: package libnih1:amd64 (1.0.3-12) with field 'Multi-Arch: no' is not co-installable with libnih1 which has multiple installed instances

[Klaus Rombach]

The same error. The system was previously upgraded from 21.04 to 21.10.

sudo apt purge libnih1:i386 libnih-dbus1:i386 && sudo apt upgrade -y

solved the problem. No problems since then. I hope I don't get any
dependency problems later.
