[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#1106229: npm: nodejs:armhf cannot install npm:armhf for some reason

[Jérémy Lal]

Package: npm
Version: 9.2.0~ds1-3
Severity: minor

Doing this

dpkg --add-architecture armhf
apt update
apt install nodejs:armhf

fails to install npm.
Trying to fix by installing npm:armhf doesn't work.

I suppose Multi-Arch: something is missing for npm, but I don't know
which one's the right one.
