Hi,
Looking at the PPA package details for sane-fit and sane-releases for
the focal distro, I see libsane-common listed.

Hi,
I cannot install libsane:i386 because libsane-common:i386 is missing:
$ LC_ALL=C sudo apt -s install libsane-common:i386 libsane1:i386

Note, selecting 'libsane-common' instead of 'libsane-common:i386'
libsane-common is already the newest version (1.0.32+git20210315-focal0).
libsane-common set to manually installed.
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libsane1:i386 : Depends: libsane-common:i386 (= 1.0.32-focal0)
Depends: snmp:i386 but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: sane-utils:i386 (>= 1.0.32-focal0)
Recommends: ipp-usb:i386 but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Looking down your output, it seems to me that libsane1 is the problem
because it depends on snmp:i386 which it cannot install.
It's not obvious to me why that would be the case. You could try
installing the package manually to see what it says.
Another thing that you can try is to remove all the sane packages and
install from fresh.
From the above output, it seems like you have a package installed from
sane-git but are trying to install now from sane-releases.
Make sure that you only have one of sane-git and sane-releases in your
repo list.
Cheers,
Ralph
