Dear all,

It seems to me that Ubuntu has dropped i386 supports from 19.10. I don't find an official announcement, but see this notice from the official website:

https://ubuntu.com/blog/statement-on-32-bit-i386-packages-for-ubuntu-19-10-and-20-04-lts

I recommend removing i386 packages for Ubuntu 19.10 and Ubuntu 20.04 from

http://texmacs.org/tmweb/download/linux-packages.en.html#ubuntu

since they are no longer necessary, and the existence of these packages will increase the opportunity that users download the i386 package instead of amd64, of which the difference is not known to new comers.

Best wishes,

Frank
