Navigating through multi-arch support in various Linux distributions often involves using different package managers like APT, DNF, and Zypper. These package managers enable users to manage software installations efficiently, handle dependencies, and ensure stable system operation. In today's multi-architecture environments where both 32-bit and 64-bit applications coexist, understanding how to manage these packages across different systems is critical. Multi-architecture support allows a system to run applications compiled for different types of hardware architectures. For example, on a 64-bit machine (x86_64), you might want to run applications that are available only in 32-bit form (i686).
