Bug Description

There is no i386 Nano package in Jammy. I used Nano all the time including in chroots, which is where this reared its ugly head.

I am subscribing ubuntu-archive in case they want to add nano to the hard-coded i386 allowlist.

However, Ubuntu no longer supports i386 as a full architecture. It only has limited packages to allow people to use legacy software (such as games) that is not available for the usual 64-bit architecture.

packages are provided on i386 only if they are required for binary compatibility.
