Full Error

N: Skipping acquisition of configured file 'main/binary-i386/Packages', as repository 'https://download.mono-project.com/repo/ubuntu stable-focal InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'i386'

I edited /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-official-stable.list

From

deb https://download.mono-project.com/repo/ubuntu stable-focal main

to

deb [arch=i386] https://download.mono-project.com/repo/ubuntu stable-focal main

But now get error

N: Skipping acquisition of configured file 'main/binary-i386/Packages', as repository 'https://download.mono-project.com/repo/ubuntu stable-focal InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'i386'

When I browse the package I can see the i386 package ???

https://download.mono-project.com/repo/ubuntu/dists/stable-focal/main/binary-i386/

What stupid thing am I doing wrong ? many thanks

This repository does not provide 32-bit packages. Its Packages has zero size.

So you have to replace [arch=i386] by [arch=amd64] in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-official-stable.list and then run sudo apt-get update again.

I only put [arch=amd64] in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-official-stable.list and then ran sudo apt update . Because the default version taken is [arch=i386] even if there is not specified in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-official-stable.list.
