I'm surprised we can simply get rid of these -- do you know why?

I had to remove them, otherwise I got this error

"E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Error: Process completed with exit code 100."

Here is the AI explanation why they have to be removed:

"The error E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages occurred because gcc-multilib (which allows the native x86_64 compiler to build 32-bit x86 binaries) conflicts with cross-compilers like g++-aarch64-linux-gnu in Debian/Ubuntu packaging. They cannot easily coexist because they compete for similar multi-architecture file paths and header locations."

Looking at this more -- I guess the old ones are 32 bit platforms which we don't use anymore.
