Thanks for reporting. This version of skanlite only has an amd64 build and therefore can't be installed on the Pi. I believe the install instructions for distributions at the bottom of the page shouldn't list the Raspberry Pi in this case, so I'm reassigning this issue from snapd to the store for confirmation and further triage.

Not a bug in the snap store backends, if the software has not been built/published for your architecture then you would understandably not be able to install it.

The github issue noted above is the right place for this report.
