Title:
  libc6-i386 asks for older package on up to date Ubuntu 20.04

Status in glibc package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Currently using Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
  All packages are up to date and apt update + apt upgrade report everything is up to date.
  I currently have libc6 installed as version 2.31-0ubuntu9.3
  When trying to install the i386 package of libc6 (libc6-i386) the installation fails because it says it requires 2.31-0ubuntu9.2, which conflicts with version 9.3 currently installed

  To reproduce :
  Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
  sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
  sudo apt install libc6-i386

  Returns :
  The following packages have unmet dependencies:
   libc6-i386 : Depends: libc6 (= 2.31-0ubuntu9.2) but 2.31-0ubuntu9.3 is to be installed
  E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
